If the Dems win every one (be still my heart) then we would end up with almost a super majority in the Senate.

We have a lot of work to do in 4 weeks!

I wasn't thinking because I've been "baking" all evening.

Thank you!

The first 35 are those not up this year. These are the add-ons. And the first bunch are all shoo-ins, gets less likely as you go down the list. But some of those originally thought completely impossible to win are now looking a lot better.
