obviously, you prefer to be both, but it s best to be accurate. harry, as i watch, and i m watching a lot of harry enten this week, which is a good thing, but i m watching the margin get smaller to smaller. as a neophyte, p trajectory continues, she beats him, right, in the senate race? look, i think that is most likely scenario. we have to wait for the mail ballots to get in. every time the mail ballots came in, she s hitting essentially what she needs to hit to overtake him. that s the same thing, obviously, in arizona. we saw mark kelly was doing what he needed to do. that s why cnn rejected the race. in nevada, cortez masto is hitting the numbers she needs to hit. getting 63%, 64% of the mail ballots that are coming in. yeah, if i were making a bet at this particular point, i would think that she will, in fact, win re-election. okay. which would mean that georgia
congress. the senate, 49-49, with two races to be decided. the house, where 218 is the magic number, is at 211 for the gop, 203 for the dems. in times like these, i always like to turn to cnn s senior data reporter, harry entin. there is only nevada and georgia, the run-off. what s the latest in nevada s senate race, and why is it taking so long? so a few things. number one, in nevada, what we ve seen is catherine cortez masto has closed within 1,000 votes. she gains as more mail ballots are counted. in clark county, obviously the home to las vegas. it is those mail ballots that take so long to get counted in nevada because they only have to be postmarked by election day. they can come in as late as saturday. now, nevada has universal mail voting for all registered voters. essentially what s happening, they re getting the envelopes, they have to verify the signatures, and it takes a while to count ballots. better to be accurate than fast.
mail voting. it counts a lot time to count the ballots. as of yesterday, only a third of the votes have been counted in the district. he was up, but we re going to have to be patient here. california and the west coast, with all its mail voting, it takes time to count the ballots. the house is far from determined at this point, even if republicans are the favorite. if they win control, it is probably only 220, 221 seats. it is ridiculously close. it feels like groundhog day. i m tired of seeinging it, so i hope it is over soon. harry, nicely done. thank you so much. thank you, sir. more social media now. what do you have? an unmitigated disaster for rs. entire leadership should step down. trump need to get out of the way. john, when you take a look, and i went through some at the outset of the program today, in the races with he put his thumb on the scale and i m not laying it all off on trump you know, you get what you deserve. republicans nominated those candidates that he
reflecting now in a new op ed on his new book that s coming out on his final days in office with former president trump. we ll tell you what he said about what went down behind the scenes. you re definitely right. interesting timing and a book. we re going to start with the waiting game here. it could be days, even weeks before all the votes are counted and control of congress is determined. in the house of representatives, republicans are in the lead with 209 seats inching closer to that magical number of 218 that they need to win the majority. democrats trailing 191. take a look at the closely watched house race in colorado s third congressional district. republican lauren boebert is in jeopardy of losing her seat by just 64 votes to adam frisch. you can truly say it s down to the wire. it is a cliche, but in this one, it really matters and it is true. harry entin is here.
