For Democrats: Definitely GA, probably OH as well unless Brown or Biden are the nominee. Also potentially TX given increasing talks of TX trending left, but I'm guessing the Democrats won't put too much stock into TX to begin with. I think they might be smart to give up on IA too without the right candidate to win it back.

For Republicans: I don't know how Republican leaders view CO and VA, so I don't know if they are going to try to seriously invest in those states, but I know that much of the Republican base still see them as easily winnable swing states while I would say it would almost take a landslide or a candidate from either of those states for CO or VA to flip. NV and MN are also probably not worth their time.

Dems: Ohio, Georgia
Reps: Minnesota, Maine
No way Minnesota is fools gold if mcmuffin had not have been on the ballot in Minnesota then trump would have won it by 20,000 votes,as for Maine it's a swing state it's always been it's just that the GOP was nominating the wrong candidates if Maine was so blue then lapage would have never won.

The fools gold state election are going to be Colorado,Nevada,Georgia,Iowa and North Carolina.

I guess Louisiana is now a swing state because it has John Bel Edwards has governor?

Louisiana is a different is different then Maine
The only reason john bel Edwards won was because of David vitter and him cheating
Maine is a swing state lapage was supposed to lose both times and he won both times.

LePage won because a left-leaning Independent peeled votes off the Democratic candidate, both years. In 2010, the Indepedent + Democrat vote total would've beaten LePage by >15%, and in 2014, the Independent + Democrat vote total would've beaten LePage by >3%.
