Expect turnout levels not seen since the 60s, especially among Democrats: https://www.npr.org/2018/10/18/658255884/voter-turnout-could-hit-50-year-record-for-midterm-elections
This bolsters the argument/speculation a few posts back that some of the models may be under-projecting the Democrat's chances in certain races if their turnout assumptions are too low.
I'm not saying you're wrong. More like we'll see, as the Zen master said. If last year's state house elections here in VA are an indication, then you might be right. But looking at the districts where Dems made the most state gains, VA 2, 7 and 10, only 10 looks to go Dem right now. All the polling so far has Taylor and Brat holding on.
