The Guardian lays out polling (Reuters/Ipsos: Democrats 47%–36% on the generic ballot, Trump at 32% approval) and argues Trump's broken promises, the Epstein files, the Iran war, living costs and perceived self-enrichment have eroded his coalition ahead of races where Republicans hold the House 218–214 and the Senate 53–47.
“Donald Trump nationalised these races, and now they’ll lose seats because of it.”

People need to get out and vote as very clear winning margins needed in the Senate races. They are going to try every trick in the book to undermine the results and this time he has his followers in place to help him achieve it.

Actually, contrary to what Rep. Eugene Vindman (D-VA07)'s pathetic GOP opponent (falsely) claims, Vindman's one of the most "moderate" Dems in the House, demonstrating yet again that no matter what Dems do, Rs are ALWAYS going to claim they're "socialists," blah blah.

I feel like I’ve been waiting 10 years for the American people to give the orange man the full middle finger at the ballot box. If it finally happens, it proves that we really did need to touch the stove.

Check out SNL’s “Weekend Update” last night, which led with Trump’s bizarre/sudden obsession with “men’s asses.” WTF? (of course, the pathetic, cowardly, gaslighting “news” media won’t just say what we all can see with our own eyes – Trump is completely unhinged.)

To put it mildly, this does not appear to have been a well-attended or enthusiastic rally. Meanwhile, it's truly astounding that this person could have been Virginia's governor - SHUDDER - but thank god she lost by 15 points last November!

Whatever happens tomorrow, @bethmacy can be VERY proud of the energetic, inspirational campaign she's run in VA06. If the voters of VA06 are wise, they'll definitely deCline the odious Trump bootlicker Ben Cline and elect Macy instead!

The comment by Josh Gerstein of Politico epitomizes SOOOO much that's wrong with the U.S. political "news" media - arrogant, condescending, gaslighting, wagon-circling, etc, etc. In stark contrast, Brian Rosenwald nails it.

"The last Senate polls of 2026 from NYT/Siena": *El Sayed +11 in MI *Talarico +7 in TX *Jackson +6 in ME *Brown +5 in OH *Hamilton +5 in KS *Peltola +2 in AK *Turek +1 in IA To quote Jean-Luc Picard: "make it so"/"engage!"

Kraushaar is a political "journalist" BTW; says a lot about that profession. Anyway, he should - but won't - listen to @tombonier; in fact, the Michigan Dems absolutely should have expelled Haley Stevens' traitorous ass.

For anyone who argues that the Bezos Post is fine, other than its far-right editorial page....uhhh, what?!? Also, for those who for whatever (nonsensical) reasons continue to swear by public media (NPR, PBS), LOL!

VERY right-wing Virginia Republican Christian Heiens is forecasting Mark Warner by 19.1 points, Shannon Taylor by 4.6 points in VA01, Elaine Luria by 11.1 points in VA02, John McGuire by 1.1 points in VA05.

"Mostly final precinct EV turnout in the VA districts (a little over 10% of VBM tends to arrive Monday or later). Keep in mind this baseline is 2025" - @djsoke.bsky.social

Per @statenavigate, 2026 early voting in Virginia ended up 0.7 points bluer than last year, when Abigail Spanberger won in a landslide by 15 points. Blue wave incoming!

The fact that the @nytimes employs Patrick Healy is a killer for the NY Times' credibility in general. Healy is sooooooooooo bad, it's hard to even know where to start.

These ratings seem about right. In Virginia, maybe VA02 could arguably be Likely D, but Lean D is totally defensible.
-
Other than MN, which is far too close for comfort, these numbers are amazing for Dems. Let's hope they're accurate!

Timeline cleanser from the traitor in Michigan - this is much better!
