Øptimus Legislative Model: Update September 10, 2018

September 10, 2018 by Scott Tranter

With less than 2 months until Election Day, our model continues to shift towards Democratic control in the House while holding steady on Republican chances in the Senate. The generic ballot national environment generates most of the aggregate shift this week, with polling coming into play in individual seats. Overall, Republicans remain strong favorites to retain control of the Senate, while their chances to keep the House hover slightly over 20%.

Details about the modeling can be found here and sign-up is free.

GOP chances of retaining the House: 21.2% (-2.4%) with a mean prediction of 211 GOP Seats (218 for control).

GOP chances of retaining the Senate: 82.2% (-0.4%) with a mean seat prediction of a 51-49 GOP majority.

Biggest House movers this week are IN-04, FL -27, OH-12, and TX-02. 

Biggest Senate movers this week are Nebraska and North Dakota.
