of watching folks question these things based solely on their forecast. If someone says something people want to hear, they applaud and ask for more. If someone says something people don’t want to hear, it’s “WHO IS THIS PERSON AND WHAT MAKES THEM QUALIFIED?” kind of replies. Hilarious. And it’s even better when it’s the same source, as it is with Wasserman.

Is he right? Hell if I know. I also don’t care. The votes will be counted.

Wasserman identifies the districts he thinks each side will win, instead of just offering a prediction of an end result with no attempt to explain how that result is reached.

in 2024.

2-3 seat GOP majority? I don’t think they can elect a speaker. The J6 commission is finished. It’s in Mueller’s hands now regardless of who has the house. How are they going to lift the debt ceiling? Hunter investigations? Sure, that will work for the GOP brand! 😂

All I care about are judges. The senate handles that.

We are in great shape. I love having the contrast of Biden vs. the GOP house in 2024.

220 -213 with two not accounted for. The best outcome is 220-215; the worst outcome is 222-213. My guess, and its merely a guess, is that its 221-214.

But the chances of its being limited to a 2 or 3 seat majority are not good.

15. The two tossups
Mon Nov 14, 2022, 01:45 AM
Nov 2022

Republicans are leading in both but in the CA-13 race, the Republican is leading by only 84 votes and only 61% of the votes have been counted. There is no clear lean for now.

On CA-22, the Republican is leading by about 2,900 votes, but only 53% of the votes have been counted so it's not an insurmountable lead.

If Warnock wins, then the Senate can pick it up and keep running with it.
