With two days to go before the midterm elections, a slew of new polls suggest Republicans are on their way back to a Senate majority.
Three NBC News/Marist surveys released Sunday found Republican candidates leading Senate races in Georgia, Kentucky, and Louisiana. One day prior, a big PPP poll found the Republican candidates in Kentucky and Louisiana likely headed toward victories well, and it showed Republican Tom Cotton staking out a sizable 8-point edge in Arkansas. And then there's the final Des Moines Register poll of the Iowa race, released late Saturday, in which Republican Joni Ernst opened up a 7-point lead.
