The list is growing.

Thanks for the optimistic post.

won’t Sen Klobuchar reelection help Smith’s election?

[wny]

Minnesota - maybe, NJ no way

[Kozy]

Boss, Boss the wave, the wave. Run like Trump and you will win. Run like just another Democrat whether socialist or RINO you lose. Minnesota May control the fate of the House and the Senate. Who would have thought?

NJ replaced corrupt Bob Toricelli last minute. Could happen again if they want to retain power.

JM....

Don't forget MA, Geoff Deihl "The Real Deihl" against Liz Warren.

She stepped in it this past weekend with what some perceive as Anti-Cop remarks.

It is not going un-noticed amongst the L.E. community in MA and Police Chiefs have spoken out about it.

Listen to hrs 1 and 2 with an interview with Candidate Deihl on Jeff Kuhner's show ( WRKO 680 am 12 to 3 pm est, Boston )

See the links below, I have been saying 10 to 13 in the Senate if PDJT runs the table, the MA win would take it to 12 if I dovetail of your observations etc....

As a caller late in the 1st hr noted on Jeff's show, her comments may have been her "Deporable Moment", from his lips to G-d's Ears...

New Jersey, unfortunately, will stay with Menendez. We “red-state NJ” people have two huge obstacles: we’re greatly outnumbered, and we keep getting “Republican” candidates like Hugin forced on us. Many of us will not vote for faux Republicans any more — and even if we did, we are still outnumbered by leftists, “gimme free stuff” voters, and all of the illegal and fraudulent votes.

[hoosiermama]

Thanks for the positive news. Hoping the MSM doesn’t pick it up so it will be a surprise election night.

[taxcontrol]

I am not quite as optimistic so my number is 3-4 pickups.

I do hope you are correct though.

[butlerweave]

Make sure you say , to make this happen every Republican has to get out and vote

[READINABLUESTATE]

Operation “Minnesota Chaos” will commence as soon as I leave work.

SOUNDING THE 🚨 Here in Texas it's looking more like a tight race between FAKE-Beto and Cruz! Our local DNC is extremely energized and is going all out for the FAKE ONE by setting up registering tables at ALL city functions. I've attended a few local health fairs and the first thing you notice is the registering tables set up in front of entrances! Never seen this before in the past and I'm talking about at EVERY city function. Now, Perhaps Cruz private polls numbers are showing him a few points ahead .....this is the reason he is asking trump to come to Texas. I'm a tad worried Cruz will not cruise through this election this time around! ....fake-Beto's GTVO ground team is impressive and it's massive!! TEXAS PUBS PLEASE HELP CRUZ GTVO!! I'll be doing my part calling folks!!

Growing... and growing... as people open their eyes ....

The 35 Senate seats up for grabs in NOV:

(14) Easy Dem wins: CA-Feinstein, CT-Murphy, DE-Carper, HI-Hirono, ME-King (I), MD-Cardin, MA-Warren (Fauxcahontas), MN1-Klobuchar, NY-Gillibrand, WA-Cantwell, VT-Sanders (I), NM-Heinrich, RI-Whitehouse and VA-Kaine (VP candidate)

(5) Easy GOP wins: MS1-Wicker, MS2-Hyde-Smith, NE-Fischer, UT-Romney (yes, of MASS), WY-Barrasso

Now for the more interesting races, and how those states voted for Trump:

(3) The close Trump win states, but likely DEM wins...
MI (Trump +0.3): Stabenow (D) currently polling at +18
PA (Trump +0.7): Casey (D) +17
WI (Trump +0.8): Baldwin (D) +15 (yet WI re-elected their other Senator, Ron Johnson (R), the Anti-Baldwin, in 2016 at +5?????... Schizophrenic State)

(1) SHOULD be in play but ain't...
OH (Trump +8): Brown (D) +13

That's 18 DEM wins to 5 for the GOP... but none change their current Party. It's still +1 GOP...
Now... here's the 12 races where the action really takes place (current GOP seat in red)...

(3) The possibly in play, but weren't expected to be...
NJ (Hillary +14): Menendez (D), was +21 in JUN, now just +2!!!
MN2 (Hillary +1.5): Smith (D) was +14 in JUN, now just +4!
TEX (Trump +9): Cruz (R) +6 (the fact that TEXAS is this close gets Dems excited... but that 9% = 813,000 votes to overcome)

(6) The WTH????? How are these even close??? How are these DEM seats???
IN (Trump +19): Donnelly (D) tossup trending GOP?
MO (Trump +19): McCaskill (D) tossup trending GOP?
MT (Trump +21): Tester (D) +3
TN (Trump +26): (open) tossup trending GOP?
ND (Trump +35): Heitkamp (D) tossup trending GOP?
WV (Trump +42): Manchin (D) +10

(3) And the other close races that everyone is focused on:
NV (Hillary +2): tossup (bouncing both ways)
FL (Trump +1.2): Scott (R) +3
AZ (Trump +3): Sinema (D) +4 (a new RINO or a DEM pickup... still a loss either way, really. Replacing Flake with a Trumper could have been a big win.)

Of those final 12, the GOP currently holds 4 (AZ, NV, TN, and TX). The Dems currently hold the other 8. Trump won 9 of those states. Hillary won 3 (MN, NJ, NV).

If the 7 states that went for Trump by 9+ points all go to the GOP, then the GOP will gain at least +1 in NOV, no matter what the other 5 states do. (The GOP needs about a +4 to become RINO-proof, however.)

Picking up NJ (Hillary +14) would be stunning.

Ditching Sherrod Brown (D) in Ohio was my big pipe dream for NOV (Trump +8!), but that isn't looking likely.

Except the GOP are experts and stealing a defeat from the jaws of victory.
