1
in the likeliest scenario, I'm saying Blorja blish again blanzas and a blend Tucky is real.
2
So here's the thing guys.
3
We'll see.
4
We'll see.
5
We'll see what's up.
6
I'm not going to say anything.
7
I'm not going to say anything.
8
Let's just get, let's just get back to the news.
9
Polling is a problem.
10
This year says Chaz nutty comb.
11
Polling is a problem.
12
Total recall bias.
13
Our findings suggest this probably causes a two point error favoring
14
Democrats in your standard generic ballot poll to add insult to injury many posters are using pretty conservative weights
15
this year a large non -response bias among republicans must occur to counteract those observations otherwise
16
we are probably on track for a va new jersey 2025
17
repeat the groups trump made his largest gains with younger
18
non -white lower income non -college politically disaffected are the most likely to lie to pollsters by saying
19
they didn't vote for him in 2024 because they're reinforcing their upcoming vote choice.
20
Guys, I'm going to explain something to you.
21
Okay.
22
I know all of the smart posters keep saying like, it's a blue NAMI.
23
It's a blue NAMI.
24
They've been, they've been torturing the polls.
25
They've been weighing for Republicans just outright refusing to pick up any phone calls.
26
Like it's virtually impossible to find a Republican.
27
And even then there is a plus eight national environment favoring the Democrats, right?
28
All I'm saying is this, have you met the Republicans or rather just voters in general?
29
That's all I'm saying.
30
If you've been around the country and I've been all around the country and gone to these districts,
31
gone and seen these races, the voters, all I will say is this, just manage your expectations.
32
Okay.
33
Money matters.
34
Elon Musk personally dumped $450 million or $500 million,
35
or I don't know, some crazy number right into the midterms alone.
36
Remember Elon Musk is a singular donor dropped more than $400 million into the midterms alone in numerous races.
37
Elon Musk, uh, in the presidential cycle had dropped half of that.
38
So he doubled up his investment.
39
Now it's really, really, really important to understand something here.
40
Okay.
41
These ads that touch on people's worst instincts, these ads that get people agitated,
42
these ads that, that are comprised of, you know, racial agitation, all the most heinous stuff that we see,
43
they are unfortunately propped up by garbage media consumption that your grandparents and your parents who are likely
44
Trump voters or former
45
Trump voters already are inundated with.
46
And when you pair those two things together, you might not actually have it reflected adequately in the polling data,
47
but you could potentially see a lot of these people come out and vote.
48
I'm just saying, I expect the Democrats to win the majority in the Senate.
49
I expect the Democrats to win the majority in the Senate.
50
Michael from PA thinks it's 56.
51
I think it's likely 52.
52
I have not made any like firm predictions so far.
53
I do worry a lot about the Abdul El -Sayed race regardless.
54
I'm at 52 on the Senate.
55
Obviously the House goes to the Democrats.
56
That's a lock.
57
And I'll give you my most controversial take.
58
in spite of the latino swing young white men are leaving the republican party
59
and more importantly latinos are leaving the republican party
60
i still think the texas rule voters are going to show up
61
and they're going to put
62
that piece of shit ken paxton in office i hope
63
it's not the case i really want james talley to win i really want blags this to happen
64
but i have been hurt before
65
and i will not believe it until i see it i hope
66
i'm wrong i hope i'm wrong i'm telling you guys right
67
now i just i've seen my fellow man i've traveled around the country
68
i've seen these voters okay i know what what motivates them
69
i know what leads them to make decisions they are not operating on the same fucking playing field
70
and i'm seeing early voter uh participation especially in texas from rural areas
71
and uh i'm a little bit worried anyway we'll see i need
72
you to understand something the data says blue nami
73
so michael from pennsylvania is absolutely correct
74
when he says 56 he's not wrong he's not only looking at the polls
75
but he's also analyzing the readily available information by scratching the surface of the polls,
76
looking at how they're even delivering the results that they're getting right now, and the results that they're getting right now.
77
are after numerous weights and numerous adjustments like Nebraska, right?
78
Right now, a new poll came out not looking too good for Dan Osborne in Nebraska, right?
79
How do we arrive at this number in Nebraska?
80
Well, you look at it, Nebraska was plus 24 in 2024.
81
Currently, if you look at electoral, like early vote participation, the environment is plus two for Republicans.
82
However,
83
the polling is done off of plus 22 for republicans that's crazy right for all intents
84
and purposes if you are a hard data guy
85
if you are engaging in analysis off of just the readily available information no vibes whatsoever
86
you look at this stuff
87
and you look at like uh you look at the new york times numbers
88
you look at all these different polls you realize that they are basically giving
89
Republicans like a 10 point boost because they simply cannot encounter a single
90
Republican when they're going all across states like Kansas,
91
they can't find the sufficient number of Republicans to pick up the phone and answer a pollster.
92
Johnson, I'm telling you the polls are wrong.
93
We're going to defy history and we're going to be celebrating big victories.
94
Okay.
95
I wouldn't go that far, right?
96
Like this is in the, in the likeliest scenario, I'm saying Blorja,
97
Blishigan, Blanzas, and possibly Blaine and, and blow Ohio.
98
Obviously North Carolina is a lock too.
99
I do not have a lot of confidence in South Carolina flipping, even though God, the Republican candidate selection is so bad.
100
It is so bad that like
101
Mike Rogers is one of their heavy hitters this time around.
102
You know what I mean?
103
Like, think about how devastating the Republican candidate selection is that
104
Mike Rogers comes across.
105
Mike Rogers comes across as like a, like a better candidate than the rest.
106
And that's only because he, he doesn't have, at least as far as I know, sexual deviancies under his, his banner, right?
107
He's just like pure, he's old school.
108
He's going straight racist, right? he's not he's not gone the distance he's not doing uh
109
you know defensive pedophiles as much as many of these other republicans have like ken paxton
110
or vivek ramaswamy it's also kind of funny to think the cubans in miami are unironically voting for an administration
111
that's been deporting their neighbors like their cuban neighbors
112
while simultaneously starving the cubans in cuba which of course uh creates an environment
113
that necessitates more migration from cuba more refugees from cuba to miami right
114
so they are some of the the biggest like leopards eating
115
my face voters of all time bro is this fake news
116
then with mike rogers new mike rogers ducks questions over his
117
campaign leaders ties to a midland church sex abuse game spoke too soon
118
spoke too soon i i want to apologize
119
i want to issue a correction earlier uh from from three minutes ago approximately three minutes ago
120
i made the wrong i made a wrong statement
121
i said as far as i know mike rogers is one of the few republicans
122
that does not have like a sex abuse scandal
123
that he has a close association with it turns out
124
it turns out abc 12 reports rogers has kept a member
125
of his campaign senior leadership team who publicly supported a man convicted of sexually abusing children
126
you know it's quite difficult folks let's be real
127
it's quite difficult for the grand old pedophile party to to not hire people
128
that haven't at some point defended pedophilia sexual abuse
129
that makes sense yeah pedocon theory is a theory like the
130
theory of gravity anyway here's johnson here's michael johnson also
131
you know definitely overestimating the republican party's chances like i don't think
132
this is what's gonna happen all over the country my friends
133
and i'm feeling really good right now i'm telling you the polls are wrong okay
134
we're going to defy history
135
and we are going to be celebrating big victories on tuesday night
136
that's my prediction okay amen it's a spiritual battle yes ma 'am
137
we're going to talk
138
i spiritual battle yes ma 'am is this the beginning of
139
the end for donald trump these upcoming midterm elections won't see trump out of the white house
140
but if polls are to be believed the democrats will be very successful
141
and that is a threat to trump's power for the first time republicans are finding
142
that they have to fight hard in deep red states
143
that they never thought they'd need to defend
144
and trump's approval ratings aren't looking strong either so i just i don't i don't know how you can
145
right now be supportive of what's been going on in Washington.
146
So which states are key for Trump to maintain power and how close could it all really get?
147
Millions of Americans are going to the polls.
148
In some places early voting has been underway for days.
149
And that I'm on the ballot because we get a lot more votes.
150
Midterm elections are rarely good news for the incumbent in the White House.
151
I accept responsibility for not delivering to whatever extent.
152
It's my fault we haven't delivered back to the American people what they want on
153
that i have to accept
154
that responsibility actually i thought we're going to do fine yesterday both parties are bad trust me i hate
155
that i mean both parties are bad let's be fucking real okay
156
there are uh there are horrible democrats out there i mean they're still better than the republicans
157
but they're horrible nevertheless nonetheless and then we're seeing
158
that we're seeing some of those individuals right now you know they can't seem to lock in
159
and do their
160
and play their role for like even
161
you know five more days three more days whatever however long it takes just just don't say anything
162
if you got nothing positive to say just shut the fuck
163
up can't do it can't do it shows what i know
164
but i thought we're gonna be fine in the election i'm not recommending for every future president
165
that they take a shellacking like they like i did last night.
166
In the House of Representatives, all 435 seats are up for grabs.
167
The outgoing Congress had 218
168
Republicans, one independent who votes with them, 214 Democrats, and two vacancies.
169
This gave President Trump's Republicans, led by House Speaker Mike Johnson, a razor -thin majority over the Democrats, led by Hakeem Jeffries.
170
It is considered highly likely that the Democrats will gain the four seats
171
that they need to take the 218 majority that's required and more besides
172
over in the u .s senate there are 100 seats each of the 50 states has two senators
173
and they sit for six -year terms 35 seats are up
174
for re -election the outgoing senate had a republican majority of 53 against 45 democrats
175
and two independents who voted with the democrats the democrats need a net gain of four seats.
176
So where will control be decided?
177
These are the states that are considered competitive if the polls are to be believed.
178
If they want to take control of the Senate, the Democrats need to keep Michigan.
179
But Donald Trump won this state in 2024 and the existing
180
Senator is retiring.
181
The Democrat candidate, Abdul El -Sayed, will become the first
182
Muslim member of the US Senate and tensions have been high between him and Trump.
183
Whilst Republican Mike Rogers is a backer of President Trump, Butt has criticized his tariffs on the state's neighbor, Canada.
184
The Democrats could lose this seat and still mathematically win a majority, but it will be much harder.
185
They also have to hold on to the Georgia Senate seat of John Ossoff, who won by a narrow margin.
186
He's going to win.
187
Last time, Butt is considered a rising star in his party
188
and appears to have a healthy lead in the polls
189
and to new hampshire a state which is usually democrat but
190
that is ironically enough another seat that gets no coverage whatsoever
191
but that is probably going to go
192
that is going to be a flip i think i am very worried that new hampshire is going to flip republican
193
and maine is going to flip democrat i don't think
194
so there was only one poll to show to flip i'm worried man
195
which has a republican governor
196
and to minnesota where the democrats have been battling a fraud scandal
197
and the decision by their governor tim waltz part of the problem isn't just
198
that chris poppas is like not very popular it's
199
that his opposition polls say poppas has a fat lead i hope i hope
200
if they can hold on there the democrats have to flip four of these republican held seats
201
they're hopeful of winning north carolina where the popular former governor
202
roy cooper is pulling well ahead of his opponent michael whatley
203
maine is a tradition yeah roy cooper is a lock democrats well ahead of
204
when that's have to flip four of these republicans minnesota
205
i think minnesota is going to be a win i think minnesota stays i think north carolina stays or not stays
206
Cooper is polling well ahead of his opponent, Michael Watley.
207
Maine is a traditionally
208
Democrat state that has repeatedly returned
209
Republican Senator Susan Collins, a moderate who's been willing to break with President Trump at times.
210
She's being challenged by Tony Jackson, a former logger who was a late substitute when the previous
211
Democratic nominee had to drop out over a sex scandal.
212
Now, Republicans are also right about Alaska, where Mary Peltola could be on course to beat incumbent republican dan sullivan he said tony jackson dude he's
213
so it's kind of funny that troy jackson is considered so unremarkable
214
He, he's considered so unremarkable despite the fact that his race is pivotal, right?
215
For, for the Senate majority, because it would be a flip and it's hilarious that, that they're just like
216
Tony Jackson, a moderate, literally none of those things are correct.
217
His name is Troy Jackson and he's definitely not a moderate.
218
He just, people just think he is because he's boring
219
so much of this stuff is on vibes he's pro -medicure for all
220
he calls out israel's genocide he's in favor of of denying aid to israel like he's not he's not a moderate
221
oh they said collins is a moderate not him oh okay i i misunderstood
222
but again they got his name wrong not to be confused
223
with another dan sullivan on the ballot who republicans say is a spoiler
224
the trump administration's department of justice is already preparing a legal
225
challenge to the result ohio formerly the seat of jd vance the vice president is considered competitive
226
and is another possible gain for the democrats and
227
if polls are believed the long -time republican stronghold of texas
228
could deliver a major blow again all polling shows currently
229
that talafrico is most likely going to do the damn thing
230
and create blexus make blexus a reality i want to believe that
231
but deep in my bones
232
i have a real fear about texas about how texas republicans operate thoughts on gina for governor there's no world
233
if if i don't think if talafrico doesn't win against campax
234
and gina's winning against uh governor greg abbott i think gina already has a tough battle regardless uh even
235
if talafrico wins because greg abbott is uh you know he's a fairly competent demonic entity
236
that doesn't have the same level of of uh haters
237
and the the same disapproval as as ken paxton ken paxton
238
is has i think the highest disapproval in the in in the country out of all the candidates
239
that are running other than like donald trump
240
i guess also elon is dumping millions tens of millions hundreds of millions of dollars into
241
that race too to republican morale polls suggest
242
that james tallarico is ahead of his scandal tainted
243
but mega supported opponent ken paxton in what is the most
244
expensive senate contest race of all time musk's millions though might not be enough to save the day for trump
245
and paxton if
246
that wasn't bad enough for the president then kansas could return a democratic center for the first time since this man,
247
George McGill, who left office in, yes, 1939.
248
Polls suggest that the megachurch founder Adam Hamilton could be poised to take this reddest of red states away from the Republicans.
249
And that previously unthinkable result has got
250
Democrats dreaming of other victories.
251
In Iowa, Josh Turek is within a few points of Republican Ashley Hinson
252
and the weak polling advantage of Republican Darlene Graham a political
253
novice who is running to replace her late brother Lindsey Graham has caused the Republicans to this is another one
254
that became an unnecessary contest because of you know the demise of Lindsey Graham
255
and then Donald Trump deciding to make Lindsey's stupid sister who
256
doesn't know anything who's like very clearly not knowledgeable run in his stead
257
but i still don't think south carolina turns throw money at the contest
258
and persuade trump to adopt abusive nicknames for her opponent dr annie andrews
259
and there are also competitive races for state governors these officers enjoy enormous power
260
and those elected can be a thorn in the side of the white house 36 states are up election.
261
The parties hold 18 each.
262
There are close races, and if the polls are correct,
263
the Democrats could end up with a majority of state governors for the first time since 2011.
264
So, for Trump, even his millionaire friends
265
and fame may not be able to win those seats
266
that he so desperately needs to keep control in the House and the Senate.
267
And without control
268
and influence there this really could be the beginning of the
269
end for trump's america a majority by one is a majority by none
270
because corporate democrats will volunteer to be the bad guy a
271
majority by six would also still yield the same results
272
but a majority by one is a majority by none because of john fetterman it's different john fetterman I'll see you then. is possibly a flip.
273
Like, I don't consider John Fetterman to be a Democrat.
274
Well, our most likely scenario is, but da -da -da -da -da, Democrats' chance to win the U .S.
275
House of Representatives up to 92 percent, up to 92 percent that
276
Democrats win back the U .S.
277
House of Representatives according to an aggregate of models, my aggregate of models.
278
Now look, 92 percent is not 100 % that still leaves
279
Republicans with an 8 % chance, but chances are Democrats are going to take back the House,
280
and more than that, they're going to take back the House with ease because I promised you a specific seat forecast, and here it is.
281
In the horseshoe, you can see it.
282
There's more blue than red, and so our final projection, our final House forecast is 237 seats for the Dems, 198 seats.
283
oh my god it's a bloodbath
284
michael from pennsylvania thinks it's like more than that too michael says it's like 250
285
so the republicans look this is the most likely forecast
286
i'm not saying i'm going to be right on it's going to be very interesting to see after the elections
287
we're going to go back we're going to see how close
288
that this actually got
289
but at this point democrats look like they're not just going to reach 218 seats
290
they're going to exceed it with ease of course i know the real reason
291
or at least I think I know the real reason that a lot of you have tuned into this,
292
and that is you want a Senate forecast.
293
And we do have a final
294
Senate forecast, but this is obviously exhausting me.
295
I've had a very long week, so a little mid -forecast drink for me.
296
Oh, my God, it's Coca -Cola.
297
I do enjoy a good cream soda, and there we go.
298
Okay, so we're going to be projecting out all of the Senate seats,
299
all 35 Senate seats, all the states in yellow we're going to fill them on in.
300
We're going to fill them on in.
301
But before we do so, we have to understand just how hard it is for Democrats, historically speaking, how hard it is for Democrats and why
302
Republicans at the beginning of this cycle, we thought were in the catbird seat.
303
And this is why.
304
Take a look here.
305
Senate flips in states that the party lost by at least 10 points in the prior presidential election.
306
How many seats did they flip in non -special elections since 2011?
307
That is, over the last 15 years, they flipped zero, zero, zero.
308
They flipped zero seats.
309
And why is that so important?
310
Because Democrats need at least two.
311
At least they need to flip at least two plus 10
312
Trump states in order to win back the United States Senate.
313
But here's where it gets really interesting.
314
Here's where it gets really interesting.
315
Look at this.
316
Okay.
317
Take a look at these key
318
Senate race Dem poll margins at this point where
319
Trump won by at least 10 points.
320
You actually see a lot of blue on your screen.
321
Alaska, plus three.
322
It would be interesting to see if the final polls actually end up matching the results, given all the controversies there with the two Dan Sullivans.
323
Ohio, Sherrod Brown, seeming to do pretty gosh darn well at this point, leading by three points.
324
The Democrat there trying to win back a seat in the Senate.
325
Of course, he's a former longtime incumbent.
326
Texas, James Tallarico, hoping to become the first
327
United States senator from Texas since 1988.
328
He's up by three.
329
Kansas, which hasn't elected a Democratic senator since 1932, when Babe Ruth looked to the bleachers and called his shot in the 32
330
World Series against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
331
And Iowa, you can't get any closer than that.
332
The Democrat Josh Turek in the polling up by the smallest, smallest of margins a point.
333
Should be noted, all these races are really tight right now, but they do seem to be leaning slightly
334
Democratic, slightly Democratic.
335
Now, what could possibly cause this?
336
Because Trump won in these states by at least 10 points just two years ago.
337
Well, my dear friends, it's something that should have
338
Republicans nationwide picking up the phone, picking up the phone.
339
Hello, hello, what is going on, White House?
340
What is going on?
341
And here's the deal.
342
Trump, despite winning all those states by at least 10 points, is now underwater by double digits in all of them.
343
In Texas, he's 13 points underwater.
344
Alaska, 15 points underwater.
345
Deep down there, I mean, my goodness gracious, you can get in the Pacific Ocean,
346
you can't get as far south as Donald Trump is right now.
347
How about in Iowa, the cornfields of Iowa?
348
He's way underneath those cornfields.
349
Look at that.
350
16 points underwater.
351
Hanses, 16 points underwater.
352
And Ohio, he's down there in the Ohio River, my dear friends.
353
He's 16 points underwater.
354
Woof.
355
It's no bueno, not good news.
356
Now, here's the thing to keep in mind, though.
357
I know a lot of you are wondering about this.
358
It's so funny.
359
This is literally why I'm assuming that many of the state
360
Republicans were just like, please don't show up and then he canceled it
361
and then everyone called him a for canceling it
362
so he's like i'm going anyway it's hilarious
363
that he is the most malleable most easily manipulated person of all time unironically a national security threat
364
i'm not even kidding like having the american president have this like this many visible personality flaws
365
is truly a national security compromise.
366
It is a it is a national security problem.
367
And it is really worth this asterisk and this gives hope.
368
This gives hopes to Republicans.
369
Look at this.
370
Okay.
371
You all know if you're watching this video that polling has tended to underestimate
372
Republicans and that is true especially in Trump one states.
373
Look at this.
374
The GOP has beat their final
375
Senate poll average from 2018 to 2024 by 4 .1 points in the states
376
Trump won in the prior election.
377
We're looking at the closed states, the states that in the final
378
Senate polling average were all within five.
379
And that is the case with all, with all of these states.
380
I mean, look at this, 3, 3, 3, 3, less than one.
381
So when we see that and we see, oh, wow, that 4 .1, all of that is within the historic range in which
382
Republicans could potentially win.
383
And that's why this map really, to me, tells an important story.
384
This is very possible.
385
This is possible.
386
Your 2026 Senate, if polls underestimate the GOP by force points, right?
387
Across the board.
388
Look at that.
389
You get Michigan.
390
Michigan goes red.
391
Iowa stays red.
392
Texas is red.
393
Alaska is red.
394
Kansas stays red.
395
And you just see that it is quite possible that
396
Republicans do, in fact, hold on the United States Senate.
397
But that's not the full story.
398
Because it's not just about Trump and his unpopularity.
399
It is also about how unpopular these.
400
When does Vetterman leave government?
401
2028. Different Senate candidates are the Republicans in these deeply red states.
402
Look at this.
403
They're all.
404
2028 or before because of a health care complication.
405
Double digits underwater.
406
Dan Sullivan, Ashley Hinson in Iowa, Roger Marshall in Kansas, John Husted in Ohio, Kemp Axton.
407
Kemp Axton, 29 points underwater.
408
What the heck is that?
409
That makes him by far the most unpopular GOP Senate nominee in Texas this century.
410
I will also note that this
411
Roger Marshall number, minus 17, I did the math, that also makes
412
Roger Marshall, at this late point in the campaign, the most unpopular GOP nominee.
413
The reason why I think, like, Roger Marshall is potentially going to lose, and I also think Husted's Cook, too, is because of their disapprovals.
414
But the reason why I think
415
Ken Paxton survives is because it's Texas
416
and it's Ken Paxton there is no real evidence to suggest that james talafrico is going to lose this race
417
i just have that little faith in texas
418
and uh i think just ken paxton has has survived somehow
419
you know it's the good whites bad whites yes
420
i think texas is more racially polarized than even kansas's senate in kansas now it goes beyond
421
that though right because we're talking about history potentially being made,
422
and I know a lot of folks have had a lot of interest in the Texas Senate race, and they'll say, oh yes,
423
the polls have underestimated Republicans.
424
Here's the deal though.
425
James Tallarico's six -point lead is the best that any
426
Democratic Senate nominee since 1988, when Lloyd Benson was the last
427
Democrat to win a Senate seat, was polling at this late point in the campaign.
428
So this is truly historic.
429
Beto O 'Rourke was behind at this point back in the 2018 cycle.
430
Now, I've been talking about the plus 10
431
Trump states, right?
432
I've been talking about that.
433
But there's also another
434
Republican -held Senate seat where we've had an incumbent who has outperformed their polling in the past.
435
And I'm, of course, talking about Susan Collins in Maine.
436
Susan Collins in Maine.
437
Her net popularity, though, in Maine right now is the worst it has been heading into an election this entire century, in the 2000s.
438
Look at this.
439
he says this entire century
440
because she's been around for 150 years pretty much yeah
441
this is also um a good sign however unfortunately tryotathon is
442
also a known entity in main politics he's the president of
443
the senate uh he's been around for a minute right
444
and his disapprovals are pretty high too i love tryota having said that it seems to me like
445
People in Maine, which, by the way, Ms. Rachel is from, she also endorsed Troy Jackson.
446
People in Maine have mixed reviews about Mr. Troy Jackson.
447
Twelve points underwater.
448
So, yes, Susan Collins has outperformed her polling in the past, but she has never been as unpopular as she is right now.
449
And this is what we're seeing across the map.
450
We're seeing historic anomalies, not just that
451
Trump is unpopular, but these anecdotal
452
but texas conservatives do not care about corruption they only care about lower property tax
453
and small business no for sure i know that also they're fucking insanely racist are historically unpopular so
454
What is, in fact, the most likely Senate scenario?
455
Well, I can tell you that the chance of it has gone way up.
456
It has gone way up from where we were when we made our first forecast back on August the 13th.
457
Look at this.
458
Up 19 points, nearly up 20 points.
459
I guess 19 would be one, a four, and a five.
460
Up 19 points according to my aggregation of models.
461
Breaking unearthed footage shows
462
Ken Paxson's son glorifying religious violence against
463
Jews and Muslims.
464
Here's what we need to remember as Christians.
465
We don't have to take up arms, though.
466
There are times when you have to, and we're going to talk about the Crusades and how I'm very pro the Crusades,
467
right, because they were doing what had to be done.
468
All right, we've been told a lie about that.
469
We're going to talk about that.
470
We've got 10 weeks of this, right?
471
We've got a lot to talk about.
472
I'm very pro Crusades.
473
Where does that leave us?
474
Where does that leave us in terms of the most likely Senate outcome?
475
Well, drum roll if you please, here it is.
476
Chance that the Democrats win the Senate, this is the most likely outcome, is now up to 71%.
477
71%.
478
I never thought I'd see the day early on in this campaign where
479
Democrats would have a 71 % chance of winning back the United States Senate.
480
I mean, that is a huge chance, but it's still not 100%.
481
Republicans still have a 29 % chance of holding on to the United States Senate, And that ain't nothing.
482
That ain't nothing, because a good baseball hitter, right, gets on, what, 30 percent, bats 300, although baseball players have been getting hits less and less.
483
But that's right near that.
484
That's right near that.
485
And of course, we can remember the Wade Boggs of the world, the George Bretts of the world.
486
They were easily breaking 300 batting averages, getting on at least 30 percent of the time, all of the time.
487
So, look, this is still, this is still a quite a high possibility.
488
He's not, this is not a Calci prediction.
489
He's not talking about Calci prediction odds.
490
This is his estimate, dude, his aggregate of the models.
491
You see players who have 290 batting averages getting on a whole heck of a lot.
492
Now, this is 71%, right?
493
But I promised you specific seat forecast, specific seat forecast.
494
So here we go.
495
This is it.
496
This is the specific seat forecast.
497
And I'm going to get nerdy for a second here.
498
But first, what are we talking about?
499
We are talking about 52 Democrats.
500
52 Democrats compared to 48 Republicans.
501
Compared to 48 Republicans.
502
So Democrats, not just getting the 51 seats necessary, but getting the 52, a clear majority of United States Senate seats.
503
Now, if you're looking at your map here, you'll see, look, Texas goes blue.
504
Kansas goes blue.
505
Alaska, yes, Alaska at this point goes blue.
506
We'll have to wait and see.
507
Ohio goes blue to get the flip in North Carolina.
508
Michigan stays blue and maine yes even in maine you get a flip
509
but here's the thing i want
510
you to keep in mind as we look at this the race in these states maine kansas iowa stays red
511
and alaska are all very very very close it wouldn't surprise me
512
if any of these seats went the other way now
513
if you're truly a nerd at home you might be tallying up
514
and you go harry wait a minute it's actually 53 seats that you're showing that
515
Democrats will win in terms of the seats they currently have and then the seats that they would gain in this election.
516
Here's the thing.
517
We're talking probabilistically.
518
So that one of these states, one of these states that currently, that I am saying are going to go blue, may not go blue.
519
I mean, the race in Kansas right now in the polling, in the projections, it seems to be very, very tight.
520
Maybe that seat actually goes red.
521
We don't know.
522
We're talking probabilistically.
523
And when we add it up, it's 52 Democrats and 48 Republicans so
524
that is right now the final seat forecast we'll go back after the election see how it works out individually
525
but i'm putting it on the line right here and with
526
that we head to my favorite section yes yes
527
it's the bonus section do do do i do do do do do do do oh my god
528
it's austin show oh my god by god that's austin show's music
529

530
wait why a doobie a doobie a doobie a doobie a doobie do wow yeah I think it's
531

532

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
