Big 3 Race Rating Changes (Cook, Rothenberg, Sabato)

[Nyvin]

MN-2 has been potentially competitive for a long time now, it's just that Kline was an entrenched incumbent for the last decade which kept it out of sight for elections.    It's gradually evolving into a more urban-centric district which most definitely benefits Dems.   Unfortunately it looks like most of the Urban sprawl from Minneapolis is going south and east,  not much west for MN-3.

Also it really seems like Rothenberg is a bit too generous to the GOP sometimes.

BIG House Ratings Changes from Sabato:

House
CA-31 (Aguilar): Likely D to Safe D
CA-10 (Denham): Lean R to Toss-Up
CA-49 (Issa) Lean R to Toss-Up
CA-25 (Knight): Lean R to Toss-Up
IN-02 (Walorski): Safe R to Likely R
ME-02 (Poliquin): Lean R to Toss-Up
MI-08 (Bishop): Safe R to Likely R
NY-24 (Katko): Toss-Up to Lean R
NY-01 (Zeldin): Toss-Up to Lean R
PA-16 (OPEN): Likely R to Lean R
VA-10 (Comstock): Lean R to Toss-Up

I'd say I almost feel sorry for Denham, Knight, and Issa, given that Clinton's coattails in California are likely to be absurd, but I really don't.

"Feel sorry for" and "Issa" don't belong in the same sentence.
