This was Conor Lamb's original district; He's now running (and likely to win) in PA-17.

I believe the Governorship is in the bag for the Dems.
The big one is getting rid of Peter Roskam (R-IL 6). Roskam is a menace to freedom.
It's a tight race with Dem Sean Casten holding a 2 point lead in the polls.
That district is historically on the conservative side, but enough people are sick of Roskam to want to unseat him.
VOTE CASTEN, IL 6 !!!

On Edit: IL-6 is an insanely gerrymandered district that favors the GOP. Many parts are quickly turning purple.
