So… a bit of skepticism is warranted here.

Change research has a slight-moderate democratic and left lean. And while credible, is far from a gold standard, probably a C+/B- poll quality. This is truly the only poll even close to leaning D (others +4-11 R)

Vindman is only running to pick up what he feels is narrative armor since he was intrinsically involved in the first impeachment hoax vs. Trump.

Thats not going to happen

Bryon Donalds is a bad candidate though that could lead to a down ballot upset or two.

The thing to look at is how Trumps 2024 coalition will vote. like Hispanics and the working class .
If these voters blame gas price, inflation, cost of living on the GOP, they could lose a seat or two.. but I predict the GOP will win the Senate anyways

I'd really love to be wrong but I think we're in for a really bad cycle. No predictions about specific outcomes or control, but just a lot of deflating, "I can't believe I share a town/state with people who would vote for this" outcomes.


If I had to bet right now I would bet that Democrats take control of Congress by roughly 5-10 seats, and pick up a seat or 2 in the Senate.

If Trump can find a theme/strategy that energizes the right, then Republicans have a chance to keep Congress given the redistricting and the favorable Senate map.. I am just not sure what he can do to really energize at this point.

I agree. Hope his leadership doesn't turn Florida purple in a few years.

I doubt it, the working class was already struggling under Biden, but Trump could blame Biden for that.

with the tariffs and Iran War, voters now have reason to blame Trump directly for prices.

the effect the Epstein files has had on his approval rating is not been discussed but its there.

Not really. Most people don't give two shits about it.

Midterms will be a bloodbath. If they can flip Florida with that traitorous piece of shite then the Dems will win several deep red seats

Trump and the GOP better wake the frick up and starting putting our interests first, not Israel’s and not the MICs

Alexander Vindman has a better service record than the SECDEF.

Think about that for a second.

Why do republicans keep propping up female republicans.

Both Vindman's should have been court martialed, their first loyalty is to Ukraine

They both gave false testimony against Trump during the impeachments,

Likely is a BS poll, but I do worry about the impact of “moderate democrats” continuing to move out of places like NYC & LA.
