The Left seems to be winning the hearts and minds of Americans in the last month or so, and Donald Trump seems to be headed to electoral defeat. Democrats are in a good position with which to win the Senate majority this time.
Voters under 40 are about 20% more Democratic than Republican, and they are supplanting voters over 55 who die off and are about 5% more Republican than Democratic. Figuring that the voting career of most people is about sixty years, that means that on the average about 1.6% of the electorate dies off each year, predominately in the 55+ group.
Trump has done little to attract newer, younger voters.
...I will be particularly delighted if Minnesota puts Trump effectively into the "He Can't Win" zone of 192 electoral votes before 11 PM on Election Night just to spite you.
