It was interesting from 538's article that Northam does better in polls with fewer undecideds. Guess that 'undecideds always go GOP' Atlas so-called wisdom may be proven wrong.

Republicans were lucky all the special elections were in Republican territory. That enabled them to pull off narrow wins, so some people foolishly ignored the large swings to the Democrats. With these elections not in Republican territory, it is clear Donald Trump is not teflon and neither is the GOP, and 2018 is looking like a wave.

"You can't really look at tonight's results and conclude that Democrats are anything other than the current favorites to pick up the U.S. House in 2018."-David Wasserman

"I’d pick Democrats if forced to make a choice. But I’d have to do a lot more analysis before I was ready to conclude whether they were like 51 percent favorites or 75 percent favorites. My answer would have been pretty similar if you’d asked me 24 hours ago, by the way."-Nate Silver on if the Dems are favorites to win the House

Thanks for pissing on the victory parade. Your point isn't even valid.
