ML Strategies has compiled recent polling and punditry on the 2012 Presidential, Senate, and House races. The race to the White House grows closer as Election Day approaches. In the past week of polling, roughly half have shown a slight Obama lead while the other half has Romney slightly leading. The control of the Senate remains uncertain: with eight races remaining pure tossups, it is not clear which party will be the majority in the 113th Congress. The House will likely remain in Republican control with anywhere 226 and 228 seats already solid, likely, or leaning Republican seats; 218 are needed for a majority.
