Post-ABC poll: Voters favor Democrats over Republicans in 2018 House midterms by widest margin in years

Voters say they prefer Democratic candidates for the House of Representatives over Republicans by the widest margin in over a decade, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll — a fresh sign of trouble for the GOP majority one year before the midterm elections.
