Needs SO Seat off-ye- Democrats currently control the House with 3 vacancies. All 435 seats are up for election, as they are every 2 yeais. The Republicans need to gain 30 seats for a bare House majority of 218. In assessing survey findings, it should be borne in mind that the elections are three months away and the thinking of voters cannot be expected to have crystalized. In addition, congressional campaigns in most states do not bit their stride until after Lauor Day. As of this time pi unary elections have been held in only 23 states, with 27 still to come. Afnong likely voters in the 244-18- current survey, the Democrats hold a 8 percent lead in the South.
