2018 US Senate Election Prediction- Based on recent polls- Democrats will end up losing 2 seats.

Democrats pick up AZ but lose ND,MO,and IN.
If upcoming polls in NV shows Rosen-D leading Heller-R, NV will be the 2nd Republican held seat Democrats pick up.
If Democrats have a good night next week. They will narrowly win MO and IN. Democrats need to eke out a win in ND,TN,or TX.
Democrats will hold onto FL,MT,WV,MI,WI,OH,and PA.

Which is to say, I'm not happy in the least right now.

Trump will be in a world of hurt with Schiff in charge.

put him on trial in the Senate. make Roberts do his job. hold their elderly Caucasian feet to the fire, even if they won't convict.

specifically. My interpretation of all pollsters, they really are not placing sufficient value on the anger level that democrats have. I believe between that and some major surprises on Nov 6th, democrats take the senate and deliver a crushing blow to republicans in the House. One week till we see.
