Just as long as they don't forget that their voting day is 11/13/2018 and not 11/6/2018. You know to avoid all those white supremacists people. Heard the moronialls are like--- MEH!

Primaries for long term incumbents do not attract a lot of attention.

Keep in mind: For dems to increase their "turnout" their voters don't have to go to the polls, or even be alive - VOTE FRAUD is a major component of their campaign strategy.

I will crawl naked through broken glass to get to the polls, but I do believe that the House is up for grabs. I think it could be a very close win for either party at this point.

I think, like others have stated, that the Dems are going all out. This will include all sorts of cheating.

Special elections, conducted on various days throughout the year, and throughout the country, are a different animal than mid-term elections the first Tuesday in November.

This study is not particularly earth-shattering. It compares Dem and Rep turnout in 2018 as compared to 2014 in midterm primaries. The big problem? In 2014, Republican turnout was through the roof and Dem turnout was completely depressed. So, naturally, the Dems huge increase in turnout—from shitty to very good—in the primaries is not particularly surprising. Equally unsurprisingly is that Republican turnout is only up marginally over 2014. The big news is that R turnout is UP over a huge turnout year in 2014. Its like saying a basketball player doubled his free throw percentage from 20% to 40% b/c he went from being 2 out of 10 from the line to 8 out of 20. Or, to compare Republican turnout, that Larry Bird only slightly increased his FT % from 92% to 93%.

Logical Fallacy: Axios bases their prediction on Primary voting increases.

Primaries occurred WAY BEFORE the Kavanaugh travesty.

If Republicans turned out reasonably well in the Primaries, picture them NOW.

High primary turnout usually indicates in the main dissatisfaction with the field of candidates offered to the voters in that race, with more voters showing up to try to select someone they value more than the likely candidate - if they don’t manage to dislodge the candidate they don’t favor they might be more likely to stay home and not vote in the general election....
