Wave – No Wave

The latest predictions from the Cook Report of national trends in House and Senate races still sees no election waves helping either party, but some opportunity for Republicans to hold or even pick up U.S. House seats.

Although the Coffman vs. Romanoff race in the 6th congressional district is predicted to be one of the closest in the country and both national parties are engaged, Romanoff will mostly need to win it with his charm and campaign.

He is on pace to be competitive in fundraising, a weakness in his senate primary in 2010, but he must deal with a lackluster expected voter turnout and a national party more excited about 2016 than the mid-term election cycle or this administration.
