re: I’m seeing new polls that show Democrats might retain more seats than earlier expected

Instead of the media highlighting that our economy is in a recession, nonstop focus is being thrown upon how Republicans hate veterans, women, teachers, and gays. They will continue to push it hard until voters start to question if their real life experiences with inflation are worse than certain social issues.

Factor in the GOP running poor candidates in PA and GA, and the forces behind a red wave seem somewhat weak.
