The Hill: Republicans lose edge on generic congressional ballot: poll 

Republicans have lost their lead on the generic congressional ballot ahead of November's midterm elections, according to a new USA Today-Suffolk University poll released on Tuesday. 

The survey shows Democrats narrowly leading Republicans on the generic ballot, 39 percent to 37 percent, marking a major shift from the GOP's previous 8-point lead in a November USA Today-Suffolk University poll. 

The Democrats' lead falls with the poll's 3.1 percentage margin of error. 

However, according to the latest poll's findings, Republicans are necessarily not hemorrhaging support to Democrats — rather more Republicans said they were undecided. Undecided voters ticked up 16 percent to 24 percent from November to January.

That is not what I see in Real Clear Politics composite poll for Biden (-11.6). In that poll Joe Biden got a Thanksgiving/Christmas Season respite, which is over now.

that said between ballot stuffing and the media going with the big lie, Democrats could pull off a win. I mean shit they are going Cloward and Piven on steroids.

It is not Biden's poll numbers that I am looking at. It is the Congressional numbers that caught my eye.
It looks like this is one of those situations where everyone hates Congress but not their congressional representative.

You are correct WNU. I was hoping for Biden to have negative coat tails. I expect the Democrats to steal every election they can next November.

On the other hand many Democrats are retrying. One like Bobby Rush are in safe districts, so there will be no change. Trump cannot be everywhere, but I suspect if more people were like him they would run a Republican there and run them hard enough to bleed the Democrats financially and to make gains in the overall result.

there is a ta tic that an enemy will press an attack even where they do not expect success merely to prevent that areas from transferring troops to another area to reinforce it against a probable or actual breakthrough.

This is to be expected (the report). Besides stealing they will employ all psych tricks.
