Even CNN can’t cover up how the bad situation is for the Democrats.
During a segment discussing the upcoming midterm elections CNN’s Senior Data reporter Harry Enten said that Republicans are in the best position “at this point in any midterm cycle in over 80 years.”

“If you’re a Republican running for re-election or trying to unseat the Democrat, things are looking pretty good, right?” Jake Tapper asked CNN’s senior data reporter Harry Enten.
“I would say they’re looking very good from a historical context,” Enten said. “So, basically, I took the best Republican positions on the generic congressional ballot at this point in midterm cycles since 1938. That generic ballot, basically, as would you vote for the generic Republican or generic Democrat in your district. And guess what? Since 1938, the Republican two-point lead on the generic congressional ballot is the best position for Republicans at this point in any midterm cycle in over 80 years.”
WATCH:
Although CNN is claiming that the Republicans only hold a two-point lead currently it is likely much larger.
A poll from Rasmussen found the GOP leading by 8 in the generic congressional ballot.
The 2022 midterm elections are now 158 days away, and Republicans have an eight-point lead in their bid to recapture control of Congress.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that, if the elections for Congress were held today, 48% of Likely U.S. Voters would vote for the Republican candidate, while 40% would vote for the Democrat. Just four percent (4%) would vote for some other candidate, but another eight percent (8%) are not sure.
November is coming!
