We win!

Statewide Congressional vote, according to the current numbers at the Secretary of State's site...

Democrats 818,288

Republicans 767,363

It's only expected to get better for our side. Clearly, most of us would rather be represented by a Democrat, and if Rick Larsen can hang on, most of us, once again, will be.

Fewer of us, I'm afraid, with the 3rd gone, but most of us, still.

By the way, if any enterprising soul has done this for the national Senate vote, I'd love to see it. I figure our wins in California and New York alone will swamp most of their victors.

I have some national analyses of House totals going back a number of Congresses. Off the top of my head, it's 2002, 2004, 2006, and maybe 2008.

My purpose at the time was to use mid-term House patterns to "predict" the next Presidential outcome, but I didn't actually follow through. Though I will note that I saw some trends pretty early. For instance, there were more votes for Dems than GOP in 2006 Noth Carolina House races ... and NC went for Obama in 2008.

If you're interested, I could dig out the spreadsheets.
