Let's acknowledge that Republicans did a better job

registering new voters than Democrats this year.

This is the biggest reason that Democrats didn't do better in more down ballot races than anticipated. It is probably also why some of the polling was off. Polling firms don't always capture newly registered voters as well as they do voters from previous elections.

Combine that with many Never Trump Republicans who didn't vote for Trump but still voted straight Republican in all down ballot races, it explains why Democrats didn't do as well as everyone thought they would.
