21 days.
If you doubted if the Dems were going to take the house...This should tell you how the internal polls are looking. A rat is the first person off the sinking ship.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Facing the prospect of an electoral defeat that could imperil his presidency, President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he won’t accept the blame if Republicans lose the House in November, arguing that he is “helping” Republican candidates in the midterms.

Steve Kornacki Breaks Down The Latest Midterm Polling

Early in-person voting and mail-in voting in Georgia so far to this point in the 2014 midterm elections and shows more than three times as much so far

Early voting in Georgia skyrockets versus 2014 midterms

The Texas Senate race is looking out of reach for the Dems as O’Rourke is a constant 5 points back.

3 key moments in Ted Cruz and Beto O’Rourke’s last Senate debate Ted Cruz tried to paint Beto O’Rourke as an “extreme” liberal in their last Senate debate. O’Rourke called him a liar.

The Dems also look to lose a seat too.

North Dakota Senate - Cramer vs. Heitkamp... Cramer +8.7
And it seems pretty steady.

That leaves the margin beyond razor thin for any chance of a Dem take over and leaves a good chance for a GOP pick up.

This is about the state of the midterms, which is going two directions at once. The Dems look primed to take the house..biggly and at the same time lose seats in the Senate.

Trump says that each election is about him ...but they can't blame him if they lose, and yea that is the latest polling on Governor's races and yea you don't like the Democrats.

“I’m not running,” he said. “I mean, there are many people that have said to me ... ‘I will never ever go and vote in the midterms because you’re not running and I don’t think you like Congress.’” He added: “Well, I do like Congress.”
