re: #28 KGxvi
Democratic seats up in 2018 in states won by Trump:
Montana, North Dakota, Indiana, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Missouri
The only potential pick ups for Democrats are Nevada and a long shot in Arizona. Oh, and Florida and Virginia are also up this year.
If Democrats want to hold the Senate, a few defectors on things like this are probably going to happen, because otherwise, I don’t know if Democrats can get to 51+ seats in the Senate. For some on the left, it will appear as Republican-liteism. But to the voters that these Senators will actually need to win reelection, it’s an example of them being a representative of their voters.
It’s early, but I see the Ohio Democratic Party working on Portman right now as hard as I’ve ever seen them go after a seat they want.
Trump’s popularity isn’t good and I am thinking by the end of the year there is going to be Ohio Trump Voter Remorse.
Hopefully Portman losing his seat is closer than a long shot.
