Nevada is one of the most pro-choice states in the nation. They love abortion, marijuana, and gambling, all things the Republicans hate. Not happening.

that's looking increasingly less likely.


Brace Yourself for a Republican Wave
As voters shift their attention to the economy and crime, polls begin to hint at a major GOP advantage

Yes it is fortunately but for republicans make sure you get out and vote and do no take anything for granted assuming an easy victory and stay home.

Vote and vote to ensure it!!

i'm not. i'm pointing out that the premise on which this thread hinged when it was initiated in late july has now evaporated.

Biden passed "The Inflation Reduction Act" and suddenly the MSM is crowing he's got his mojo back. Here in AZ gas prices (currently $4.80 a gallon) fell to $3 a gallon during the summer and there was the Dobbs decision.

Yet, shopping for groceries is still expensive, gas still high (was under $2 a gallon in 2019) and abortion not the overriding concern it's made out to be.

The Dem comeback was smoke and mirrors. They were never doing as well as the polls suggested.

I agree. It boils down to the economy. People want results now not later so the "inflation reduction" bill means nothing to them nor does abortion when they can't put food on the table afford to drive to work or find affordable housing.

If the Republicans win and they dither around and don't produce results and just use Biden as a crutch for two years for their incompetence they will get tossed out too.

Americas are hurting and they want answers and results asap.

Gas prices are always 30% 50% higher in the winter when less people are driving and we are in the time when less people are driving

Proof to that, and please be specific?

One of many articles that disproves your statement

"Turnout from Georgia’s first day of early voting set a new state record for a midterm election, nearly doubling the figure from the same time period in the previous midterms, state election officials said Tuesday.


More than 131,000 Georgia voters cast ballots since early voting began Monday, according to the office of Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. The figure represents an 85% boost over the 2018 midterms, when nearly 71,000 early votes were cast on Day One, the office said."

Obviously, this in no way suggests that one political party or the other is having a huge wave. But it does indicate the high level of interest, at least in Georgia, of the mid-terms.
