Prognosticators Have Never Learned How To Rate Races In A Wave Election-- And Pollsters Can't Get Their Models Straight

Polls are all based on "likely voters." A campaign manager I was talking to last week was in a rush because he was still dragging homeless people onto buses to feed them sandwiches, etc and get them to the early voting stations. Over a thousand. Likely voters? Not a chance. Early voting shows "unexpected" upturns for women voters, black voters, Latino voters and millennials voters. How many extra seats is that worth to the Democrats beyond what the pollsters and prognosticators predicted? 10? 20?

Dayna Steele Rocks The 36th

You know how gung-ho we've been about the Houston-area race pitting progressive Dayna Steele against right-wing ideologue Brian Babin. He's a Freedom Caucus extremist. Dayna's someone who wants to make life better from people in southeast Texas. Big difference. Anyway, Imagination Worldwide has been working on a document-series for Amazon-Prime and Google Play that will premiere September 4, with a new episode airing every 2 weeks until election day. Above you can watch the trailer for the first episode.
