There is virtually zero chance of that happening, so the Democrats can only hope to be in better position for 2020. The Republicans almost always gain seats in mid term elections. There are 11 districts held by Republicans which were labelled tossups by The Cook Political Report, and three districts currently held by Republicans which will probably go Democrat in this election. It is unlikely that the Republican will give up on an incumbent easily.
Cresent Hardy's district is one of the three, so it will probably be an extremely hard fought election. Florida 10 Daniel A. Webster (R) 2010 Florida 13 David Jolly (R) 2014 Nevada 4 Cresent Hardy (R) 2014 On July 20, 2015 Jolly announced that he is giving up his seat to run for the Senate seat being vacated by Marco Rubio in 2016 WTH kind of name is "Cresent"? |

Maybe his dad Larry liked the tool company? Ironically, Cresent was a contractor before he became a congressman. His wife's name is Peri so maybe Mesquite has a thing about off the beaten track names. |
