Fox News voter analysis data:

65-34 on economy
51% want to repeal Obamacare
46% support the wall
66% think political correctness has gone too far
If these numbers are true, Republicans will narrowly hold the House, and gain around 3 Senate seats.

I highly doubt they are.  Kind of excited to follow along tonight, not really caring what happens and just being interested for the first time in a while.  Off to the polls!

Dems are going to get pummelled tonight, I'm thinking they actually suffer a net loss in the House at this point.
How neurotic are people on this forum?

Incredibly, LOL.

I usually watch CNN, but their coverage is so awkward, LOL.  Might have to switch.  Or just refresh this thread.

National House exit poll is finally out, has Dems up 10

54.4% to 44.2%

https://www.cnn.com/election/2018/exit-polls

Should be enough to take the House, but it will be through the suburban districts and we may have to wait for CA.

BRUTAL for the GOP.

Tonight basically comes down to #Polarization.

Rural Areas vs. Urban & Suburban Areas.

We’re certainly seeing some interesting things tonight, but that is way too simplified.  If that were the case, Dems would be winning 70% of the vote, simple math...

The Suburban areas are still swing areas, make no mistake, but they're swinging Democratic 55-45 give or take.

For sure, quite troubling.

I wish I had all these random names memorized. Tongue  Been refreshing this thread on my phone, but I don’t know where some of these races are, LOL.

Look who you’re quoting. Wink  Republicans he likes = Democrats, and to his credit, it caught on rather nicely with his circle jerk club of IceSpear, IndyRep and Timmy!
