Yes, in fact if you look at the individual races it would be a mild surprise if the democrats don't achieve a very slight majority in the house. Republicans have to either pull a few mild upsets, or sweep 5 genuinely 50/50 races.
The problem is so many close races this year in the house are in purple districts within blue states, or blue districts in red states. So Trump will have a hard time carrying many of these races over the finish line even if he wins.
Personally I prefer a lot of deadlock at the federal level. My ideal scenario is always the republicans controlling the presidency and one house of congress, preferably the senate, while the democrats control the other. Allows for a republican to wield the executive powers while keeping government expansion via long lasting policy to a minimum.

...concerning the house could be flipping though..
Cruz is fine
The only question regarding the senate is whether republicans have 51, 52, 53 or 54 seats. Looking more and more like 52 is probably what it will be.
If I was betting on it, I'd bet on the house to flip. If Kamala wins the general it's definitely going to flip because she will bring more over the finish line than Trump will be able to just based on where the races are.
I think where the house polling gets dicey is turnout. If Ds are not turning out for districts bordering urban areas that are competitive, the polling means nothing. I am cautiously hopeful that we keep the house.
Just tried this. It is true.

I don't usually agree with you, but I agree here. If the only thing that happens over the next four years is that Congress does almost nothing, and Trump dismantles the federal bureaucracy, closes the border, unwinds Biden's executive orders, and maybe appoints another SC justice, that is fine by me.

As long as we keep the Senate, we keep the ability to get Trump judges confirmed.

Generally I'd agree but we really need a full GOP sweep of control so that they can wind back the last four years legislatively (and wipe all of Biden's executive orders).
Plus do some election reform to address the nonsense of the last two elections.
Biggest take away compared to 2020. Increased D turnout in Clark. In 2020 at 10 a.m., 5,705 Ds had voted in Clark.

Today, Ds had 13,209 show up. That's +7.5K.
Compared to 2020, Rs are up +4.2K in Clark. But Ds have netted 3.3 K. https://t.co/0sAZabehsY

As of mid-day (12:30p), Fairfax and PWC (Virginia) each reported in-person turnout in line with mid-day 2022. Given Presidential elections generally have higher turnout than midterms, this is arguably poor ED turnout.

Alrighty... Here are my predictions on the states we have information on... Not that what I think means a damn.
FLORIDA IS RED! (110%)
ARIZONA IS RED! (100%)
NEVADA IS MEDIUM RED! (>75%) Likely Republicans have too high of a lead before ED for Dems to overcome, even with an extra 3 days for (no postmark)mail.

Likely Republicans have too high of a lead before ED for Dems to overcome, even with an extra 3 days for (no postmark)mail. Unfortunately, the latest NYT and Emerson polls don't have the crosstabs available for free, but the latest Atlas poll does.will25u said:
From CNN exit polling, Independents broke 50% Biden, 44% Trump in NV. in 2020
Latest AtlasIntel poll for NV: Trump winning crossover voters by 4.5% and Trump winning independents by 5.4%.
If these splits are to be believed Dems in NV would have to outvote Reps by a considerable margin because they're losing independents and crossover voters according to AtlasIntel.

Any exit poll data? Or will there not be any announced until polls close? I remember in 2004 exit polls coming out at about 2:00 pm heavily favoring Kerry and the media going orgasmic.
Eric Hovde (WI-R Sen Candidate) just said on Clay & Buck that Madison Dem turnout is solid and expected but that Milaukee Dem turnout is supressed and that's a bit surprising.
It's been well documented that lots of people struggle to vote for either.JFABNRGR said:

Partly correct.Leander said:

any news there?
You must be assuming Fla is Trumps because it is much bigger than PA with 30EV's and 23,000,000 pop
GA 16, 11,400,000
NC 16, 11,100,000
PA 19, 12,700,000
Those three dwarf the rest of the BG's. Take those and its over.
Napkin math - Trump will likely win FL by 12 or more at this point. Bodes poorly for polling accuracy this cycle being in Dems direction.
