FIXING TYPO
Generic ballot: was D +8.0, now D +8.4
Trump net approval: was -10.7, now -10.0
House (polls-only forecast): was D 71%, now D 76%
House (classic forecast): was D 75%, now D 83%
Senate (polls-only): was R 76%, now R 82%
Senate (classic): was R 77%, now **R** 81%— Nate Silver (@NateSilver538) October 17, 2018
Wrote this just after the Kavanaugh confirmation. A quick update on how our various models and metrics have changed since then (see next tweet). https://t.co/4ihxdc5NFY

Not a super clear story here. 3 metrics got better for the GOP and 3 got better for Dems. My take before was that the notion that Kavanaugh had helped the GOP was maybe half-true. Now I think it's sort of one-quarter-true. We'll see, though. Could use more polls in a few places.

A new poll shows that if voter turnout is low on November 6, Republicans will hold on to the House by just one seat. This is why it’s so critical we talk to our friends, we talk to our neighbors, and we get everyone we know out to vote in 22 days to elect Democrats. pic.twitter.com/6rDgl4aRFz
