Dems will likely lose the House by a small margin and may keep the senate and even gain a seat. At least that is what the numbers are showing today. Yes, it would be considered a victory, at least in my eyes since the historical average is a loss of 26 house and 3 senate seats. Although it can be much worse as the Democrats lost 63 house seats and 6 senate seats in 2010. On the opposite end was G.W. Bush in 2002 gaining 8 House seats and 1 senate seat. 9-11 was the major deciding factor there.
Heck, we might not even be here for the midterms if Putin gets so peeved, he launches his nukes. The dynamics of each election is different. There’re no telling how future elections will shape up. Even how we foresee this midterm election shaping up could be completely different a month or two from now. A whole new set of dynamics influencing the midterms we have no way of knowing today what they might be.
