(14,167 posts)Which honestly is not a lot. Many of these are easily winnable. Some will require substantial investment by the DNC.
We have to do our best. We have to take back the House in order to impeach these bastards.

(11,175 posts)That's the Cook Partisan Voting Index.
It compares the voting in a state or a Congressional district with the national average in the two most recent Presidential elections. The "lean" is computed against the average, not against 50-50. Thus, because we've had two Democratic wins in the popular vote, a district with PVI of 0 (i.e., "EVEN" would have, on average, shown a small Democratic edge.

(26,598 posts)He's from Alamosa, so maybe. John Salazar was defeated by Tipton in 2010 and Tipton has held on, but being a Republican, there's some corruption going on there. Thought they might get him out this year, but hope for 2018.

(58,584 posts)we really only need 25 of those to flip and we'll have a bare majority.
35 would be great, though.
