Also, a retrospective on 538's models:

538 Projection:

House: D+39
Senate: R+1 (rounded from 0.5)
Governor: D+8

Reality:

House: D+39 (with CA-21 still outstanding. Narrow R lead, but as provisionals have been coming in the Democrat has cut the lead. But they aren't going to continue counting this week so boo. Would be a D gain if the Democrat wins)
Senate: R+2
Governor: D+7

So basically, 538's model was a Florida away from being perfect. (And possibly even underestimating the House slightly if CA-21 goes blue to bring the number to 40 pickups.)


That house prediction is bonkers. Like, absolutely outstanding. This was their first year doing it so I thought they'd need some time perfecting it. It is crazy how perfect they were on just about everything.


And yet I still see people on the Right talking about how the Leftwing Media got it wrong.
