Democrats are besting Republicans in a generic Congressional ballot released by Democracy Corps, the non-profit organization founded by James Carville and Stanley Greenberg.

In the nationwide survey of likely voters, the first release of the new year by Democracy Corps, Democrats edge Republicans 47 percent to 44 percent in the Congressional ballot.

According to Democracy Corps, the survey marks the first time since the 2010 midterm elections that Democrats top Republicans in a Congressional matchup in their polling.

TPM’s average shows a razor-thin margin separating Congressional Democrats and Republicans; however, as evidenced by the chart below, Democrats have been making small but steady inroads since the fall.
