A Republican Landslide In The Midterms Next Week?

CBS News: Republicans head into final week with lead in seats, voters feel things are "out of control" — CBS News Battleground Tracker poll 

The election is already underway; millions have voted, and tens of millions more will before Nov. 8. Amid that, eight in 10 likely voters describe things in the country today as "out of control," as opposed to "under control." 

That doesn't bode well for the party in power: Republicans are winning those who say "out of control" right now by more than 20 points, though they're often the ones feeling that way to begin with. So where do things stand?

Update #1: The US Senate races appear to be close .... Its a dead heat for the US Senate (FiveThirtyEight).  

Update #2: It looks like some Governor-ships are flipping Republican .... Governor’s Races Enter Final Sprint on a Scrambled, Surprising Map (New York Times).  

WNU Editor: The CBS/YouGov poll does not say how much of their sample size is Democrat/Republican/Independent. 

FiveThirtyEight says it is a dead heat, but when you look at their map projections it looks like the Republicans are going to pick up a minimum of two seats. 

The New York Times assessment on the governor-ships is blunt. A number of Republican pick-ups.

Bottom line. It is going to be a good night if you are a Republican.

Picking up 2 seats is not enough to overcome the Murkowski / Collins handicap.

Murkowski is no different than Liz Cheney.
