I doubt we'll take the House, even as I hope we do. I agree the Senate is ours. I do think it will be a tsunami, or an avalanche!

The Senate and over perform in the House. With Hispanic population clustered together we might I be able to flip a few House seats that are not on the radar.

Projections were at 18 seats but we might get to 25 seats.

Hope Anonymous is on full alert tonight too.

I just voted, for the first time I took along a mailer from the Dems, so I had a clue about judges etc, with no party shown.

Voting was pretty heavy for 9:15 AM, maybe a good sign.
