Early data from early voting in Louisiana is starting to come in, and the opposition appears motivated to vote.
"One of the toughest things to be in a mid-term election is the party in power," says pollster John Couvillon of JMC Analytics.
Couvillon has been looking over the data from the first days of early voting, and says Democrats outpaced Republican turnout day 45 to 39 percent.
Thirty-two percent of the turnout was Black voters.
"That's the second-highest ever, even exceeding the first day of early voting when Barack Obama was on the ballot in 2008 and 2012," Couvillon said.
"Now the question becomes how sustainable that level of early voting is," he said.
