ANALYSIS — President Joe Biden is hitting the road this week — and facing a challenge to convince voters why they should keep Democrats in control of Congress.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California has predicted Democrats will not only keep their narrow House majority but expand it. Some Senate Democrats and outside strategists have suggested they see reasons why the party might maintain its paper-thin Senate edge.
But those forecasts break with the projections of most political analysts, who are projecting Republicans will likely take control of the House and possibly the Senate come January. That means congressional Democrats have a steep uphill climb between Easter and November’s midterm elections.
