Right now I'm going through your list and comparing it to the ElectionProjection.com list and the CQPolitics list. I am just adding to the Master List those from your list that are not on the SAFE DEM seats from the reference lists. So I'm skipping a few of yours. Naturally we will have to debate this and revisit our list as time moves on and things become more clear.
Also, I've updated the chart to show the Primary Dates, Dems that are already on the list but are considered SAFE on our two references and are therefor candidates for being deleted from the Master List.
Biggest problem right now is going to be cutting down the list of primary candidates for the 6 or 7 that are running in many of the races to the 1 or 2 that can/should win and are viable candidates in November. We'll probably never get that right but we still need to give it the old college try. For that we need inputs from Freepers-in-the-know who have insight into the local races.
Add LS (Larry Schweikert) to your ping list. He is very knowledgeable about Ohio politics (and politics in general) and would be of help.
Yes, I agree with paring it down at this point. If or as “safe” seats come into play, they can be added back in.
On the list I’m keeping, as I learn more about primary challengers and get FReeper recommendations, I am moving the recommended primary candidate up to the top of the list of challengers and also placing an * in front of their names, so we know they are the ones who have specifically received FReeper kudos. Those can be gradually moved into your slot of best challenger (or however you’re arranging that).
