NEW FROM @CBSNewsPoll: House Republicans have a lead. But it keeps shrinking. Their anticipated majority has ticked down for the second straight month to 223 seats in our model estimate. Republicans were at 226 in August and 230 in July.



Dems clearly have the momentum with just a few more weeks!

These polls all substantially undercount key groups. This poll indicates Dems will win substantially. Pollsters have been trying to overcompensate for their inaccuracies and are likely just being more inaccurate.
