The democrats have closed some vast space in three special elections so far.
Montana open seat closed the gap from 2016 elections 10 points.
Kansas 4th gap closed 30 points
Georgia 6th (if the election was a push today) closed the gap 23 points
Democrats are not likely to lose any seats next year.
Republican seats that are democrats for the taking:
California 25th
California 49th
California 10th
California 39th
Minnesota 2nd
Virginia 10th
Iowa 1st
Nebraska 2nd
Texas 23rd
New York 6th
Means nothing either way without good candidates and incumbents have an edge but the Republicans did not win those seats in 2016 by a wide enough margin to really matter much.
Still not enough to take back the House IMO but the gap will be substantially closed next year.
What do you think the numbers will be in 2018?
California just passed a 5+ billion tax increase for roads to replace the original road taxes they stole for the carr and feeding of illegal aliens and to buff up the public retirement system that us bankrupting the state, so I wouldnt start measuring the drapes just yet.
