Cook Political Report shifts 18 House races toward Democrats
The Cook Political Report moved 18 House races toward Democrats, with the midterms 25 days away, according to The Hill and CBS News.
The Cook Political Report, an election handicapper, has shifted 18 House races in Democrats' favor, The Hill and CBS News report. CBS News says the midterm elections are 25 days away.
The Hill says the changes affect key battleground districts. It reports that the shifts show how unfavorable the political environment remains for Republican candidates, citing the war in Iran and the state of the economy.
The Hill names several Republican incumbents among the affected seats: Reps. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (Iowa), Zach Nunn (Iowa) and Ryan Mackenzie (Pa.). Its list continues beyond those names, but the full text was not available.
CBS News calls the update 18 "more" seats in Democrats' favor, which suggests earlier shifts. Its report says political director Fin Gómez explains the changes.
