WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 (UPI) -- The question isn't whether the midterm elections will be bad for Democrats controlling the U.S. Congress, but how bad, analysts say.
The non-partisan Cook Political Report estimates more than 90 Democratic House seats could be competitive while a mere nine Republican seats may be in play, The Washington Post reported. Because of the huge number of Democratic seats considered in jeopardy, most independent forecasters say it is more likely that Republicans will capture the 39 seats needed to take control.
