With Bullock entering the MT Senate race... we can pick up 5 or 6 seats

[AGeddy]

McSally will lose in AZ
Collins will lose in ME
Gardner will lose in CO
Tillis is looking pretty bad in NC
Ernst is in trouble in IA
Graham is getting shakier in SC

And now... Montana is going to be a lock for Bullock.


Unfortunately, we might lose Doug Jones. Let's hope not.

1. Amy McGrath should be looking better in Kentucky.....

She is seeing firsthand what Mitch Connell has NOT been doing for Kentuckians.

[kag]

2. This is the one I was thinking of.

Gardner is definitely toast here in CO, but I truly hope Amy can kick McConnell's butt!

3. The Alabama Race is not a Republican Slam Dunk!

The fact that Jeff Sessions came in second place for a run off is interesting. And The Orange One is dissing him constantly. Tommy What's-his-name might win, because Alabama, but Doug Jones may surprise us! Wouldn't that be nice! Dumping Lindsey Graham would be very sweet, indeed.

4. Neither is Bullock.

[leftieNanner]

5. Agreed

But Montana is certainly not afraid of electing a Democrat to state-wide office.

[2naSalit]

8. I know,

I live and vote in Montana.

6. Sandy always brings it.

Thanks, Raj.

12. A Real Dilemma for fans of Alabama Football Fans

Since Tommy Tuberville was the football coach at Auburn and Alabama fans hate everything about Auburn football, will they put their allegiances aside and follow the wishes of their Orange dear leader? Or will the hated be strong enough to allow the Keebler elf to sneak through the run-off election?

[DarthDem]

13. Tuberville may prove completely inexperienced

Since he has no record of running for political office (I don't believe), and therefore might make a ton of mistakes on the campaign. He's a football coach. Doug Jones is an experienced officeholder.

Then there's the Auburn/U. of Alabama factor. Are Crimson Tide alums going to be jazzed to vote for a former Auburn coach? It's at least a consideration, particularly if Tuberville starts making errors.

Doug Jones is far from the automatic writeoff that some other sites have portrayed him to be.

[leftieNanner]

14. I forgot about the Auburn/Alabama part

November 2020 may turn out to be a very interesting month!

I don't think we should assume that Senator Jones is gone quite yet.

[WhereAmerica]

7. Also: Kansas, and two seats in Georgia

I count 11 possible flips.

I rate six as at least 50-50, or better (AZ, ME, CO, NC, IA and now MT).

Three are maybe 30% chance (Georgia and Kansas); greater chance in GA if Biden takes the state.

Two as maybe 15% chance (KY and SC).

[DarthDem]

15. Right on about Kansas

If Kobach wins that primary - which I don't think has been held yet - then Barbara Bollier has an *excellent* chance of beating him.

[Sloumeau]

9. Kelly has been leading over McSally here in AZ,

but after watching politics in AZ for decades, you just never know.

[BlueMTexpat]

10. I really hope so.

Daines is gawd-awful!

[jcgoldie]

11. Wish Abrams would do the same...

Or is that Biden’s pick?

[Celerity]

17. Sally Yates is now the best hope, as zero chance Abrams runs, but she too has said no.

Same situation in

AK (Begich run has refused to run)
TN (McGraw has refused to run)
KS (Sebelius has refused to run)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_senators_from_Kansas

Kansas has been a state since 1861. They have had THREE Democratic senators since 1861. The last one, George McGill won in 1932. The last competitive race was 1974.

Odds are high they are running Barbara Bollier, who up until December 2018, was a Rethug.

In 2014, when the Democratic nominee literally sued to get off the Senate ballot.


If Kathleen Sebelius won’t run for U.S. Senate in 2020, Kansas Democrats can’t win
