There's usually a surprise in every election.

Where could the Democrats pick up an unexpected Senate seat?

I would choose Texas or Tennessee for a surprise victor. If the Democrats do well in Nevada and Arizona, and it looks optimistic, they could still surprise everyone on election day, especially if Claire McCaskill wins in Missouri?

Will surprised come nov 7th.

I maintain the metrics are so extreme, no polling model has made the correct election model of voting and turnout.

If I am right, democrats win nearly every close race from state and local to house and senate. The tidal wave will be historic.

Can democrats win the senate? Yes
Can the democrats win 60-70 house seats? Yes.


This is an election like no other in history as the democrats are mad for the first time and actually CARE.

GOP is not expanding their base....they are expanding ours.

You heard it here.
