@Pielover19 We just had a poll come out showing that the Democrat in FL-7 is only 1 point ahead, within the margin of error.

2018-08-31 18:32:33 UTC  

It's highly unlikely that it's a safe Democrat district.

2018-08-31 18:38:05 UTC  

just a few months ago I thought it would be safe for Stephanie Murphy

@Nuke This map is horribly biased. Just looking at my District, it went for Clinton, is rated a Toss-up already, 2 out of 3 polls have Porter ahead, 1 poll puts Walter ahead by 1. No party preference voters in my district prefer D to R by a 2:1 ratio, Walters has a 43% unfavorable rating and a 38% favorable rating, and according to Global Strategy Group found that "a clear majority of voters prefer a Democrat who will be a check on Trump (55%) rather than a Republican who will help Trump pass his agenda (40%)." Furthermore, Democrats have a turnout advantage as the watchdog Party.

The only evidence you have to say it's lean GOP is registration and incumbency.

2018-08-31 18:41:51 UTC  

Registration is incredibly unreliable, and incumbency only somewhat applies because people here don't Like Trump, and she supports Trump's agenda.

2018-08-31 18:42:44 UTC  

And I would assume you made the same judgments with other tilt democrat or tossup districts.

2018-08-31 18:43:17 UTC  

I derive my ratings from Inside Elections, and in this case I just went with their rating for CA-45.

2018-08-31 18:44:12 UTC  

They're being overly fair.

2018-08-31 18:44:18 UTC  

I mean

2018-08-31 18:44:21 UTC  

overly biased lol

2018-08-31 18:44:28 UTC  

They're also a biased, left-wing rating org.

2018-08-31 18:44:33 UTC  

There's no way you can look at CA-45 and tell me that's lean.

2018-08-31 18:44:35 UTC  

Of course

2018-08-31 18:44:38 UTC  

I intentionally use them because that way, you cannot accuse them of bias.

2018-08-31 18:44:48 UTC  

Thats how you energize your party duh Nuke.

2018-08-31 18:44:56 UTC  

If you make districts appear harder than they really are to take.

2018-08-31 18:44:59 UTC  

Your voters won't get lazuy.

2018-08-31 18:45:03 UTC  

And they'll overperform.

2018-08-31 18:45:05 UTC  
2018-08-31 18:45:11 UTC  

The opposite of what they did in 2016.

2018-08-31 18:46:00 UTC  

wait wait wait

2018-08-31 18:46:05 UTC  

What did you do with CA-39?

2018-08-31 18:46:49 UTC  

I didn't edit CA-39 either.

2018-08-31 18:47:00 UTC  

What is it put as?

2018-08-31 18:48:00 UTC  

Issa's seat is a tossup?

2018-08-31 18:48:03 UTC  

Are you kidding me?

2018-08-31 18:48:34 UTC  
2018-08-31 18:48:38 UTC  

Why is CA-49 tossup

2018-08-31 18:48:55 UTC  

Oh, right

2018-08-31 18:49:10 UTC  

I think I actually did list Edward Royce as a lean Republican.

2018-08-31 18:49:28 UTC  

....

2018-08-31 18:49:34 UTC  

Nuke c'mon man.

2018-08-31 18:49:47 UTC  

And CA-49 was left unedited because it's a toss-up, and Issa isn't running.

2018-08-31 18:50:35 UTC  

How is an R+1 where the democrat is outraising the Republican by huge amounts, is ahead in every poll, and we have no incumbency advantage a tossup?

2018-08-31 18:51:06 UTC  

Because AMERICANS live in Issa's district.

2018-08-31 18:51:11 UTC  

dear lord

2018-08-31 18:51:19 UTC  

Yeah no.

2018-08-31 18:51:24 UTC  

I think what we need to do.
