Mark interviews pollster John McLaughlin.

John McLaughlin, how are you doing?

I'm doing well.

It's

11 days to go.

Lots of things, lots of moving parts going

on right now and a lot of close races.

Would you agree when it comes to the House, it's too close to call.

Nobody knows what's going to happen.

There's too many seats in play.

There's

over 70 seats that are being contested that are in play, whether they say they lean Republican or Democrat or they are pure toss-ups.

There's almost 20 seats that are considered pure toss-ups.

So, uh, so it's definitely in play.

And so a lot of these polls that are coming out where like there was a New York times poll in the last couple of days that had like Republicans down double digits in the generic ballot.

And, uh, Alice had them down five, but you know, that's pretty close and, you know, they, they can make up that ground generically, uh, as a team.

But, uh, for that one, when you go into the internals, you're finding like there's more Harris voters than Trump voters.

And it doesn't, even though they did 3000 interviews, It doesn't match up with the actual political party and demographics of a national survey.

So they were, again, back to under-polling Republicans and under-polling Trump voters and saying, oh, well, the Democrats are by double digits.

Go home, don't bother voting.

Because the Democrats know that they usually do better in the early voting.

And Republicans do better on Election Day.

So they try to discourage Republicans.

Yeah.

Hey, we should point out, if you're in New York State, early voting starts tomorrow.

Tomorrow you can go vote.
