Daily Chart: Measuring GOP Election Underperformance // (Steven Hayward).

A lot more we look at the election effect last week the more perplexing it might be. What the two longitudinal chart below show is that a new president at 44 per cent (at best) approval score and inflation at (” officially” ) 8 per cent should lose– at the very least –10 House car seats. If the Dem losses usually are kept to about 12 this election will be known as one of the greatest anomalies in selection history. (Of course, the point that Republican candidates outpolled Democratic candidates by more than a few million votes makes the complete scene more confusing in addition to curious still. )
