The map has shifted significantly to the right, as Republicans in states that Trump won by 15-30 go negative against their Democratic opponents.

Clinton and Obama were both at 46% approval rating when they lost the House in 1994 and 2010.
Trump is at 34% today.

Another LIV golfer gone.
Very sad for lifelong Southern Guards fans.
🚨❌🇿🇦 #BREAKING — In a surprising move, Major Champion and 11-time DP World Tour winner Louis Oosthuizen is leaving LIV Golf, with the Southern Guards Captain declaring that it’s time to make his exit from the league as he pursues a schedule on the DP World Tour.
“I loved LIV and the team aspect, but it’s time to move on” he told The South China Morning Post.
It was initially expected that the South African team was fully on board with LIV 2.0 because of the successful home event but this changes that.
“I feel I have a few more years of good, competitive golf left in me, and the only way to be really sharp and competitive is through a schedule I control…”
“Southern Guards is my team. It always has been and it always will be. That's what makes this so difficult…”
“This is probably the hardest decision I've had to make in my career, but I have to do what I believe is right for my golf. It doesn't change how I feel about the team or the guys.”
Oosthuizen’s announcement comes as LIV faces a Sunday deadline for players to commit to the future of the league.
Do you think LIV will survive?

Looks like HMP did an event in Martha's Vineyard. They paid for flowers, hotels, catering in MVY.

They also paid for catering and travel at the Lodge at Torrey Pines, where Jeffries/House Dems have their annual big-money retreat
HMP Q3 --
Most of HMP's polling is done by The Majority Institute -- $4M. looks like theyre paid by retainer....500k payments.
PPP got 154k

HMP also seems to be doing in-kind polling for a bunch of groups including Giffords, Women Vote, EDW action fund, Reproductive Freedom for All.

House Rules Chair VIRGINIA FOXX is up with an ad that is half bio spot, half negative ad against her Democratic opponent.
