GOP House lead shrinks again as voters see high-stakes contest

The Republicans have a lead. But it keeps shrinking.

While they're still in a very good position to capture a House majority, that majority looks narrower today than it ever has, having ticked down for the second straight month to 223 seats in our model estimate. Republicans were at 226 in August and 230 in July.

Voters are engaged because they think the stakes are so high — for many, bigger than just affecting their pocketbooks.

We're getting there, it's going to be very close in the House, but we're in great shape to hold the Senate.

I think we’ll hold the Senate. Our chances are improving in the House, but at the time, I don’t want to underestimate Republican turnout. I feel very confident that Republicans are extremely enthused and their turnout will be high. Remember how we felt in 2018? I imagine they feel the same now.
