    6 Democratic Senate Seats at Risk in 2018
    https://www.newsmax.com/scottrasmussen/arizona-florida-indiana-manchin/2018/08/03/id/875346/

    August 3, 2018: Six of the 49 U.S. Senate seats currently held by Democrats are potentially at risk in the midterm elections.[1] Five of these six seats are in states that Donald Trump won by double digits. The sixth is in the perennial swing state of Florida.

    The overall results reflect an improvement for Democrats. In early April, eight Democratic seats were at risk. Since then, the races in Ohio and Wisconsin have moved more solidly into the Democratic camp.

    Overall, the race ratings at ScottRasmussen.com show four races with Democratic senators that are currently considered toss-ups: Florida, Indiana, Missouri, and North Dakota.

    West Virginia is still tilting in favor of the Democratic incumbent, Joe Manchin. Montana is leaning in the Democrats’ direction but is expected to be competitive.

    Republicans, in contrast, have only three seats currently at risk: Arizona, Nevada, and Tennessee.

    With a good turnout this fall, projections at ScottRasmussen.com show that Democrats could win control of the Senate with a narrow 52-48 majority. However, a good Republican turnout could boost the party’s majority to a 56-44 advantage.

    The Senate playing field is unique. Earlier Numbers of the Day showed that Republicans have far more seats at risk in both the U.S. House elections and the gubernatorial races. In each case, however, the Democrats have improved their position since earlier in the year.

    The most anti-American thing an American can do is vote for globalist democrats who hate Americans and want to punish them for everything wrong with Earth. I think Americans are waking up to the dangers of electing democrats who lie to their faces and democrats are becoming more open and honest about their open borders, punish white people beliefs.

    I would like to see the GOP get a supermajority in the Senate, while at the same time lose the U.S. House to the DEMs.

    This will give us divided government again with the GOP having a slight upper hand and McConnell being in the strongest position for compromise.

    Ironically, Republicans losing a majority in Congress in the midterms helps Trump in 2020. He would be able to blame EVERY problem on the Democrats. At the same time, he would still have veto power.

    @TrumpTrain

    It Ain't Over 'til It's Over.

    It's Over When The Fat Lady Sings. (Where is Hilary)


    I would love to see the Democratic Party lose big time so it would need to reconstruct itself in the image of the Democratic Party with Superdelegate reforms, apportionment of delegates when there is a primary, an impartial DNC. The Democratic Party needs to burn like a Phoenix in 2020 and rise again.
    It will not reform without its' due thrashing by the people it claims to represent. It is that simple.

    I am not ready to trust "polls" after the Hillary victory. :rolleyes:


    Be prepared, California may surprise you with the election of James Bradley (R)

    over more left than Feinstein who lost the primary, Kevin de Leon (D).
    It was an Open Primary which means Bradley beat out Feinstein for his place on the ballot.
    And Californians do cross Party lines.
    Will the Trump Train visit California this election season?

    I think it will be political suicide in the future for the Dems if they don't ditch the socialists. But, I can see that they must appeal to the Bernie kids if they hope to be competitive anytime in the near future. Trouble is those kids are going to grow up and then socialism isn't going to be cool anymore. I read somewhere that when the average young person's salary crosses the $40,000 mark, they become conservative. Kind of a hopeless situation.

    I wonder if the collective as imported enough globalist who will sell their country out and vote for Democrats?

    Is there enough anti-American hatred in America to propel the Democrats to victory in 2018?

    We will see.

    From polling so far it doesn't look to be that radical of an election.

    Democrats should get closer in the House but they have 26 seats up in the senate compared to the republicans 9.

    They haven't had that many seats up at one time since long before 1992 (that's the furthest back I checked).

    Democrats will be more motivated this time but so is the other side and democrats have been losing a lot of independents because of their radicalization.

    The Ohio special Congressional election yesterday is still too close to call.
    Ohio is a State with a habit of electing presidents.
    So goes Ohio, so goes the nation

    That it was not an easier pick up for the Democrats demonstrates a level of support undreamt by the media, pollsters, left.
    It remains to be seen whether it will be a Democrat victory or GOP.


    As of Aug. 8, about 7 PM California Center of the Universe Time
    Troy Balderson R leads by 0.9 percentage points, or 1,754 votes, over Danny O’Connor D with 100 percent of precincts fully reporting.

    Troy Balderson Rep. 101,574 50.2%
    Danny O’Connor Dem. 99,820 49.3

    Democrat Danny was leading yesterday.
    It seems the late count is favoring Trump.
    If there is less than 0.5% diff, Ohio State law requires a recount.
    The diff now is 0.9%


    Nationally, how will the media and Liberal surfers deal with the no show of the Great Blue Wave?
    Ignore it.
    Lie.
    The usual.

    Ohio

    The race is still too close to call, with 3,435 provisional ballots that have yet to be counted.
    Troy Balderson R leads by 0.9 percentage points, or 1,754 votes
    meaning the Blue Wave would have to capture 2,595, 75.5% of those 3,435 provisional ballots to win.

    That would take a lot of homeless, welfare votes by provisional ballot. ;)
