This is maybe the 3rd or 4th time its happened this cycle, with the most notable occurance in December of 2017 where the separation of cones of uncertainty remained for a couple weeks.

 

Probably the most important thing here is that polls lag.  There is probably some normalization and revertion to the mean that brings them back together but the Strzok testimony, the indictments, and the Surrender Summot might drive the numbers back lower once their impact hits polling.

If your district has an electronic voting machine; I'd be very leery.  Trump and the GOP will make sure the Russians will be able to hack those machines and ensure the GOP wins this fall.  Maybe at one time that would be crazy but now; I'd say it's a very plausible possibility this fall.  Especially, with the GOP in control in many states; they will do whatever is necessary to rig the elections in their favor.

Republicans Have Money Advantage in Most Key U.S. House Races

 

 

Quote

Republicans defending seats in some of the most competitive House races hold a financial advantage over Democratic challengers as the campaign for control of Congress enters a crucial phase, a Bloomberg tabulation of Federal Election Commission reports shows.

 

Democrats trying to wrest control of the House in November are running up against the power of incumbency and one of the main pitfalls of the surge of party enthusiasm in the first midterm of Donald Trump’s presidency: multicandidate primaries that splintered donors and drained campaign accounts.

 

Republicans had more cash-on-hand in 13 of 18 congressional districts where primaries have been held and that are rated as general election tossups by the nonpartisan Cook Political Report. The tabulation was based on second-quarter reports that were due this week.

 

GOP candidates in the 18 districts collectively had $26.6 million in their bank accounts at the end of June, while Democrats have $16 million. A positive for the Democrats: they collectively out-raised the Republicans in those districts during the period, $18.4 million to $10.5 million. The second-quarter surge brought Democrats to parity in the districts -- they’ve raised $40.4 million so far in the cycle, compared to $40.2 million for Republicans.

And because the Republicans are poised to really **** with female bodily autonomy, this PSA from Leslie Gore in 2012 is even more important. Although Leslie is no longer with us, her songs and this PSA live on. I will continue to post it each election season until these Republicans and their inhumane agenda are defeated.
