Looks like Bill's campaign is broke!

I should mention also that I've seen extremely few signs for Stabenow.

If James wins Oakland County, Stabenow could be in trouble.

Weather is supposed to be nasty much of Tuesday. That could mean good news for Republicans. Lower turnouts generally help the GOP, for whatever reason.

Because there are fewer Republicans then Democrats but they vote more... so any additional Democrats that stay home is all the more in the GOP’s favor...

Quit with that nonsense of there being more Democrats. It's just not true.

By registration nationally it is true... the Republican Party is smaller than the Democratic Party... but they’ve been able to gerrymander their way into power in the house after winning in 2010 which was expected since it was the first midterm for a new president and those almost always go against the party in power. The Democrats this year simply got a terrible map to work with in the senate. The GOP also focused like a laser on state legislatures as well as governorships in the past decade too while the Democrats fell asleep at the switch which resulted in the trifecta in several states.

If everything goes as expected later today the Democrats will have a 20 seat majority or so in the house and the GOP will have a 51-49 majority in the senate. The governorships will be almost evenly split 26-24 in favor of the GOP which would represent major losses for the GOP and there would be a reduction in the number of trifectas Republicans currently enjoy with both chambers plus a governor in several states. Today is not likely to be a pretty day for the red team...

Party registration is not a good or even accurate measure. Some states, including ours, do not have partisan registration, whereas liberal enclaves like New York and California do have party registration. Also, its interesting that Democrats lean so much on the gerrymandering excuse. I'm voting for Debbie Dingell today, not because I'm particularly fond of her, but she doesn't have a credible opponent. This does not mean I prefer a Democrat congress, it just means that in my district, the Democrat is the better choice.

Did the GOP even bother to field a sacrificial lamb against Dingell?
