Poll: Dems lead GOP by 15 points in generic House ballot
MSN / The Hill ^ | February 20, 2018

Democrats hold a 15 percentage point lead over Republicans in a generic House ballot, according to a new Quinnipiac University Poll released Tuesday.

A majority of those polled, 53 percent, said they would like Democrats to win control of the House in this year's midterm election. Thirty-eight percent said they would like the GOP to keep control of the lower chamber, while nine percent said they did not know or did not provide an answer.

The 53 percent is up from the 49 percent who said earlier this month they would like the Democrats to take control of the House. In that previous survey, 40 percent said they want the Republican Party to win a majority in the lower chamber.

“Who cares? This nation will burn, regardless of who wins the elections.”

We have a winner. The repuki party certainly haven’t done jacksh!t to endear themselves to the American people. They couldn’t even repeal Obolacare.

The GOP are in #resist mode too...

I too believe this is Fake News.

Early in the season , and once American voters adjust to their extra money in their pay checks, times will change...

I urge everyone, and all my friends to VOTE STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN IN NOVEMBER, and to send a message to the twisted panty, liberal/democrats..that Business as usual is OVER AND HAS BEEN SINCE JAN. 20, 2017.

Is this a shock poll or the old-fashioned non-electrified kind?

I don't think it's that high, but the Democrats are probably going to pick up 35-40 seats in the House, and maybe 1 Senate seat.

Yes, Pelosi will be speaker again.

Why? Because of the 'conservatives' who complain about how half the GOP are "RINO's", are going to sit home on their high horses, and hold onto their pride, by not going out to vote for a candidate who is not conservative enough for them.

Unless the GOP comes together, the Democrats will win the House (and possibly the Senate), all the investigations into Obama corruption go away, and Trumps agenda gets canned. If that happens, then 2020 shows Trump as ineffectual, and he loses in a landslide.

You’re delusional.

Idiot dems won’t get the House and they have no way in hell of taking the Senate. We pick up a minimum of 4 seats.

Perhaps you need a nap.

You all are in denial. We are getting are butts kicked in these special elections. The constant barrage of negative media in taking it’s toll.

“Unless the GOP comes together...”

The party of bush, the gop in d.c., gave a big middle finger to the Trump voters. They have done everything they can to torpedo and #resist Trump’s agenda. Hell, we have a deep-state compromised rat bastard as AG that enabled a coup against our President.

Where was that fight when Obama was running roughshod over the Constitution and the American people? That’s right...

It’s all over except for the screaming and the dying...Then again, we may end with a whimper. /spit

You have excellent memory; as do most of us with any brains.
Being printed for posterity, it must be true. Right?

I heard the RATS were ahead of the GOP in a generic poll by 15 points, but that was a number of months ago.

Then, another poll had the RATS ahead by 6 points.

Then, sometime later, the RATS were ahead by 3 points.

Then, it was even.

A recent poll had the GOP up by 1 or 2 points.

Not buying this poll....did they poll blacks only in Richmond?

No, we aren't.

There were seven special elections held for seats in Congress in 2017—six for U.S. House seats and one for a U.S. Senate seat.

In the six U.S. House races, five seats were previously held by Republicans and one was previously held by a Democrat. None of the seats changed partisan control in the special elections, meaning there were five Republican holds and one Democratic hold.

In the U.S. Senate special election, Democrats took control of the Alabama seat previously held by Jeff Sessions (R).
