If you give CT to Malloy (which will likely happen after PPP shows him ahead tomorrow) and count Bill Walker as a Dem, this would be a +3 net for Dems, making the governorships 26-24 GOP. Building!

You do realize Walker was endorsed by Sarah Palin, right? He's hardly a Democrat. He's an independent without a need to caucus with anyone.

In your scenario, it would be D+2, R-3, I+1.

So many coin flips here that could go either way. The governors races will be probably more fun to watch than the Senate races on Tuesday.

Good, I was beginning to think 538 wasn't going to do Gov. forecasts. Overall, lines up well with the CW.

There is no governor "caucus", so it's irrelevant. Walker's running mate is a Democrat and he signed onto several Democratic wish lists in order to get their support.

Calling it D+3 is inaccurate. That's all I was pointing out. I am well aware there's no "caucus."

While I expect Haley to win easily, I don't expect her to rack up a 16 point MoV, especially now that Ervin has dropped from the race.

They showed Malloy up 8 (6 without Visconti) when Quinnipiac showed it tied, so it's a relatively safe bet that Malloy will be up at least one, since Quinnipiac says its tied again.
