[NPolitics1979]

Coffman(R-CO) Lean D to Tossup D
Sandoval(R-NV) Lean D to Lean R
Hassan(D-NH) Lean R to Tossup D
Feingold(D-WI) Tossup D to Lean D

Democrats will win Tossup Races in FL(Murphy),IL(Duckworth),and OH(Strickland)47D
If all of the top tier candidates run, Democrats will win CO(Bennet),NH(Hassan) and WI(Feingold) 50D
If neither of the top tier candidates run, Democrats will win CO(Bennet),NV(Cortez Masto) and WI(Kind)

1. Hope so

We need all the wins possible because 2018, we are back to defending many of our seats like 2014. The more we win in 2016 will help at least keep the Senate in 2018.

2. Who is going to win the 2018 US Senate Races in

FL(Nelson-D vs Scott-R)
IN(Donnelly-D vs one of Republican US House Members)
ME(King-I vs LePage-R)

MT(Tester-D vs Stapleton-R)

OH(Brown-D vs Kasich-R)

3. Hard to say what will happen

But since 30 percent vote during off-year elections, anything can happen.

4. MO and WV are probably gone.

MO because of the Ferguson thing and many people disliking how McCaskill tried to play both sides. Manchin may not run for senate and might go back to being governor.

5. Manchin announced that he will not run for Governor but will seek re-election to the US Senate.

6. Are people supporting Cortez Masto?

Or is it likely that the state will go Republican?

Haven't heard much about her around here.

7. i don't know why you're so confident bennet will hold his seat

we lost a far more liberal senator in mark udall last year. i honestly would love to see bennet primaried from the left.
