MEMBERS of both parties are running full steam ahead to the November midterms following Labor Day, which marks the unofficial start of the final sprint to the election.
Expect to see a lot more campaign ads on TV and even a polling call or two in the coming weeks as Democrats battle to retain their slim majorities in Congress.
While Democrats have seen polling and several individual election models move their direction recently, they still face an uphill battle trying to thwart a House takeover.
The Hill's Max Greenwood has a great rundown of seven House races to watch, covering electoral contests playing out in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Connecticut, Virginia, Minnesota and Washington state.
Republicans are also locked in a fierce battle for control of the Senate, where each party currently holds 50 seats. The Hill's Mychael Schnell has the latest on the Senate races to watch heading into the final season of campaigning.
Control of the Senate carries with it plenty of implications for President Biden's agenda and future nominations, while House Republicans are already vowing to investigate the administration if they retake the lower chamber.
The Hill's editor-in-chief Bob Cusack previewed on C-SPAN here what we can expect this fall from Congress.
