Was Reading The Sept 8th Issue Of "The Week" And Found This About 2018 Elections....

If the 2018 elections for the U.S. House were held today, Dems would get 54% of the total vote but just 47% of the House seats. This is according to a forecast by Decision Desk HQ. Under that scenario the Repugs would keep their control of the House, with 229 seats to the Dems 206 seats.

Looks like Trump and the Repugs need to do a lot more damage before 2018 for the Dems to take back the House.

No comments were made about the Senate.

Has anyone heard of any other predictions for 2018?
