Two of the three are LA races were Republicans got a plurality, but not a majority (held under 50%). In LA, when that happens the 2 top vote getters have a runoff. Neither seat is guaranteed, but both are Republican leaning districts that are expected to go Repub in the runoff.

The third seat is NY District 27. Right now the Dem is up 51%-49% for the Repub. I expect the Dems to hold this one.
Bottom line: Repubs should end up with 233 seats Dems 201, with Sanders of Vermont (a socialist--really!) holding the final seat.
The 233 is the most by the Republicans in 52 years! And that time was only for 2 years.
