The Green Wave: The 2018 midterms and beyond

[GM Team Member and Senator WB]

Background
At the start of 2018 Democrats led the generic ballot by 10 points, most polls had Trumps approval under 40%, and Democrats felt pretty confident that they would flip Congress in the upcoming midterms. However, as primary season began it began clear it was going to be extremely competitive, by the summer the Democrats generic ballot lead had shrunk to 5 points, and for some reason, the Greens were close behind at 22%, causing Democrats massive concern (though party King Lear and DTC tried their best to conceal this publicly). Then at the worst possible time, on September 27th Robert Mueller announced the conclusion of the special counsel investigation, with charges against Trump and Clinton. along with much evidence of Collusion between the Trump and Clinton and Johnson campaigns and the Russian government. This proved devastating for Democrats and Republicans, as immediately Fox News and other Right-wing media outlets accused Democrats of wasting over a year and millions of taxpayer money on what they described as a "Biased and fraudulent investigation that found absolutely Nothing". Also, MSNBC and other left-wing outlets did nothing. The day after the investigation ended Trump pardoned Micheal Flynn (who was convicted in Federal court of Perjury a month earlier and was awaiting sentencing), Democrats were immediately furious and accused the president of bailing out his criminal associate, however polling conducted over the next few days showed over 80% of voters opposed Trumps decision to pardon Flynn, but also opposed the Democrats and agreed that the Russia investigation was a waste of time and money. Meanwhile on October 15th the Dow jones hit 1,000 due to no massive growth (the first three quarters did not grow 3.5%, 3.2%, and 3.8% respectively) which only hurt the approval bounce Trump recieved due to the not so positive conclusion of the Mueller probe. Due to these developments by the Day before the midterms, Trumps Approval was averaging in the low 10s and the Democrats generic ballot lead had fallen to nothing (the RCP average showed Democrats and Republicans tied at 45%). Even more disturbing for Democrats the last polls showed Democratic incumbents trailing in 5 senate races (WV, ND, MT, IN, and MO) tied in two (FL and OH) and barely leading in three (PA, MI, and WI) while Republican incumbents were behing comfortably in 6 senate races (TX, TN, MS, NE, UT, and WY) behing slightly in one (AZ) and tied in one (NV). Greens were ahead in most of these. This set the stage for one of the most shocking Midterms in American history, would Greens defy history and post massive gains (as the polls suggest) or would Democrats and Republicans shock the nation and post come from behind victories and preserve the trend of Midterms going to the two main parties?

By the way should I just post the election results, or should I go in-depth and describe the CNN election night coverage?

I was thinking of doing a Purple Wave but decided for the other color frozen yogurt places use.
Seriously why do they always have bright neon green and dark purple together with that?

RT 2018 election coverage Part 1:
Bernie Bernstein: Good evening America, and welcome to our 2018 election coverage.

Vermin Supreme: It is 7 pm on the east coast and polls have just closed in Indiana, Kentucky, Georgia, South Cariolina, Virginia, and Vermont and we can now make our first projections.

OFFICIAL RT PROJECTIONS
Vermont
Senator
Winner
Bernie Sanders
Kanye West: The Virgina-02 house race in Virginia is still to close to call, and also the Indiana Senate race is too close to call, However we can also project that all other Republican and Democratic house incumbents have been unseated by Greens in Virgina with the exception of of Barbra Comstock who seems to be winning by over 15%.
Deez Nuts: we called The Indiana race slower then expected because with 50% of the vote in and incumbent senator Joe Donnelly still down 20 points, and the remaining half of the vote concentrated in Green urban areas, we can reasonably conclude that Phil Sanders, a member of the Indianapolis Greens has a possible path to reelection. Obviously no surprise in the Vermont Senate Race.
Indiana Senate Race Results (50% in)
Andrew Straw: 54%
Joe Donnelly: 34%
Vermont Senate Race Results:
Bernie Sanders: 77%
John MacGovern: 22%
Virginia Senate Race Results (10% in):
Jeff Staples: 54%
Tim Kaine: 45%
Virginia 10th Congressional district results: (20% in)
Gerald Anderson: 42%
Barbara Comstock: 57%
Billy Mays: For those at home Virginia has a Democratic and Republican counting bias, as many can remember from 2016, only Republicans and Democrats won, and considering that Kaine is down by 9 points with no results in from Northern Virginia where there are for some reason a lot of Greens, this indicates Jeff Staples is still in a guaranteed position for election.
Alex Jones: thanks for the analysis Mays, we will be keeping an eye on that closely. In the meantime we’re heading for commercial break and we’ll be back when the next polls close at 7:30.
Current House makeup:
Greens: 20
Republicans: 9
Democrats: 18
