Whether each side eeks out a narrow victory, I don't see the result as a sign of things to come in November. One thing I've seen in these special elections is that turnout is generally always lower than in a general election in a normal scheduled election year, and that's holding true now. But we are seeing increased enthusiasm among Dem voters (that's indisputable). Still, this increased enthusiasm is only enough to barely get Dems over the line in cycles where GOP turnout is at its typical "lows" for special elections. I am not confident (far from it, in fact) that such will hold true when turnout goes back up at the midterms. Not in these otherwise heavily GOP districts.
