Battle for Senate Control comes down to Six States

Republican challenger Ernst leads in latest polls in Iowa which is one of the six competitive states as per the senate election interactive map. The contours of the midterms begin to focus as just one month left for Election Day. The polls represent the results and leave less time for trailing challengers for their comeback.

After the year 2004, each and every senate candidate with at least 10 percentage points in the poll four weeks before the election goes to win. In the recent scenario, the candidates with minimum lead of less than points of four percentages end up by winning 66 percent of time.

The figures diminish the uncertainty and narrow down the list of competitive states. The Upshot’s senate model believes that there are six competitive states exist and they are Colorado, Iowa, Alaska, Louisiana, Kansas and Arkansas. The modest democratic leads will be held in Michigan, New Hampshire and North Caroline where Leo states that the

Democrats hold at least 85 percent winning chance. The Republicans holds a similar advantage in Georgia and Kentucky. Also, Arkansas, remains at the edge of dropping off from the list of battlegrounds and fall into the most “likely Republican” column.

It is true that one or more out of these six states will become more competitive between this time and November.Presently, we are at a point wherein four or five point leads to start a matter and trail participants out of the time. The  senate election interactive map shows the changes in the current time. The narrow list that includes competitive states means that the senate picture seems to be cleaner all the year and 11 seats are more competitive with analysts considered to know more about conceivable possibilities like a Republican takeover of a dozen democratic seats. It remains unlikely that the Republicans will get more than eight seats with Leo still though that 10 percent chance remains for the G.O.P.

On the flip side, it seems too unlikely that Republicans will gain few more seats that five with chances of 18 percent re occurrence as per Leo. This clarifies that Republicans need six seats to win the senate. As per the 2014 senate election interactive map, the overall race becomes visible and we can anticipate the future as it is very close.
