"I think we're going to hold the Senate," Wasserman Schultz said during an interview with ABC's "This Week." "We have a ground game that I know [the GOP] would take over theirs any day of the week."
Wassermann Schultz also cited the high-level surrogates working with Democratic candidates on the campaign trail, including former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Vice President Joe Biden.
Noting close poll numbers in key states, she said the Democratic party's advantages are "superior to the ones that Republicans have."
"When we keep races this close, Democrats win," said Wasserman Schultz.
The upbeat assessment stood in stark contrast to the conclusions drawn by Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus during the same segment.
"Our ground game is whipping their ground game," Priebus said, adding later, "We're going to have a great night."
"I would be very disappointed" if Republicans don't take the Senate, he continued. "[But] the DNC in reality is not our competition … Their message isn't working. If they have such a great message, they would be winning across the board."
