37)HI(Schatz-D)
38)CA(Padilla-D)
39)MD(Van Hollen-D)

45)WA(Murray-D)
46)CO(Bennet-D)
47)NH(Hassan-D)
48)AZ(Kelly-D)
49)GA(Warnock-D)
50)NV(Cortez Masto-D)
51)PA(Fetterman-D)
52)WI(Barnes-D)
53)OH(Ryan-D)
54)NC(Beasley-D)

Safe Republican seats
AL(Britt-R) Boyd-D
AK(Murkowski-R or Tshibacka-R) Chesboro-D

ID(Crapo-R) Roth-D
IN(Young-R) McDermott-D
KS(Moran-R) Holland-D

OK(Mullin-R) Horn-D

1. WI, OH, and NC are a pipe dream. Republicans will probably win NV and PA and if they win both they

will have 51 Senators and control of the Senate. They have an outside chance of picking up AZ but even Kari Lake cannot pull Masters over the line .... probably.

GA will go to a runoff. If the Republicans already have 51 (like I think they will) then Warnock loses as well. If the Republicans only have 50 and GA will decide control of the Senate, I think we Democrats will be able to mobilize to win the runoff.

With his analysis…you? Do you do any research, or you’re just guessing.

Ryan in OH and Barnes in WI are toss ups. Not pipe dreams.

7. Do the polls change hourly? Because on a number of occasions

he has “predicted” one number the Democrats will hold after the midterms, and less than an hour later, a different number. When asked why, he is universally silent.

By my observation, at one time or another, he has said Democrats will control 50, 51, 52, 54, 56 or 60 seats. I may have missed other numbers. He may as well use a dart board instead of his “analysis.”
