First Read: According to the Cook Political Reports David Wasserman, the Dem popular vote advantage is now a full 8 points, 53.1% to 45.1%.
Indeed, Dems are getting close to 60 million votes. In 2008, John McCain got 60 million votes; Mitt Romney got 61 million in 2012; and Trump got 63 million in 2016. Its stunning that Dems got as many House votes as the GOP presidential nominees in 2008/2012/2016.
