…. I knew that you could:
Just crunched: the percentage of white men as a share of House Democrats is set to decline from 41% to 38% as a result of the 2018 election.
Meanwhile, the percentage of white men as a share of House Republicans is on track to rise from 86% to *90%.*— Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict) November 11, 2018
Staggering: if every uncalled race breaks as I expect, House Dems' class of 61 freshmen would include *35* women & just 19 white men. By contrast, Republicans' class of 31 would include 29 white men & just *one* woman.— Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict) November 10, 2018
By the way, I’ve got your Blue Wave for ya right here:
Per @Redistrict, the Dem lead in the national House vote is now 6.7 pts, 52.5%-45.8% — and it will likely grow as more CA ballots get counted https://t.co/t48ZHQ8BkI
For perspective:
'94: R+7pts
'06: D+6.4pts
'10: R+6.6pts https://t.co/CdVTVlFNTa— Mark Murray (@mmurraypolitics) November 12, 2018
