i do not believe the statement about the generic ballot in this post is accurate. GB has moved 7 points toward Dems since January, per our average (at the new 50+1 site here! fiftyplusone.news/polls/generi...)

I hope you mean 50 percent, because I would hate to have you change your domain name to "52 plus one" when DC and Puerto Rico become states!

For now, the only services we offer are a premium API account for downloading data. There is no content at 50+1 yet. I think this piece clarifies... www.gelliottmorris.com/p/announcing...
