Earlier this week we asked Gay Politics Report readers what they thought the effect of the November elections would be on the makeup of Congress.  It turns out our readers are pretty optimistic about the Democrats’ ability to hold on to power in Washington.

More than half of the 723 respondents think the Democrats will keep both the House and the Senate, an outcome some national pollsters say is becoming less likely every day.

About a quarter expect Republicans to take over the House, but fall short of taking power in the Senate.

About 10% say the GOP will win full control of Congress, while another 10% say the Democrats will keep the House and lose the Senate.
