@ThatRightWingFish If we keep all of our seats and flip North Dakota, Indiana, Florida and Missouri, 51 plus 4 is 55
@ThatRightWingFish Almost every poll shows Rick Scott in the lead. If we turn out in large numbers, it is definitely winnable.
And Claire McCaskill made a grave mistake: refusing to confirm Kavanaugh
55 is certainly reasonable
56 is best case in the current environment, October suprises could change that though
Who knows, it's called a surprise for a reason
I think NJ should be a tossup-tilt D.

Due to allegations in Ohio and New Jersey, I am giving those tossup. I am moving North Dakota and Texas from tilt to lean R. New Mexico is changed from Solid D, to Likely D due to Johnson.
Whatever you say retard
At best I would put OH as lean democrat. I definitely wouldn't put OH as a tossup and WV as lean blue. Remember that this entire region is centered around the white working class, so if OH or WI are even close then that means WV and IN went red.
My map would probably be something like: IN tilt red, WV tilt blue, WI and OH lean blue, and MI and PA likely blue.
All these polls are trash
I'm not sure it's fair to call every single poll trash.
I mean, my map is the best.
I don't agree with yours. I'd have FL tilt red, and NV as a pure tossup.
Any poll that has someone above by 10% in a state besides New York, California, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Illinois, Kentucky, the New England States, or The middle of the country is garbage
@Rhodesiaboo UNLESS that poll has the GOP up 10+
in which case you'd agree with it
I've never seen you contest a poll which favours the GOP.
yep
you folks'd be calling it solid if the polls were the other way round
One thing that might be worth considering is overestimation of democratic turnout affecting polling down the ballot. Like if they're expecting the dems to be up by 7% and adjust for that then every single election polled would be off if the democrats were only up by 3% in that state.
I definitely have a hard time calling bullshit if the polling aggregate has the democrat up by over 7 points though.
OH-12 is a good predictive measure of Democratic turnout.
and it's big
It's a fucking special election that most people didn't even know was going on, and they still lost. No one's going to forget the mid-terms.

And they're by no means a liberal outlet.
I’m sick and tired of all this Black pilling crap
You 2 are the new Button and Zak
it's not black pilling, dumb cunt. it's being realistic
just because i don't think we'll be winning 60+ seats doesn't mean I'm black pilling.
No you’re a blackpiller
if i hear you making that argument again, i'll send you to mars
I think at best we'll get 55-56 senate seats, at worst 52-53.
You believe these bullshit polls that are completely retarded and made outside of the state, where they completely underpoll Republicans.
I even think we'll win the House by a narrow margin.
So if an internal GOP poll offers a similar polling range to the aggregate, does that mean they're also purposefully undersampling Republicans?
If they’re in the state, then they aren’t
