Democrats will gerrymander the hell out of Illinois. I'm expecting at least a pickup of 3 seats in IL.

I'm expecting a pickup of about 2/3 in NY with 2 more in NV.

Probably 1 pickup each in WA, AR, WI, MN, WV, AZ and NH.

Would states like WA, NV, and AZ really be pickups? They're probably seats already held by the Democrats, they just happen to be located in different states at the moment.

WA wouldn't be a "pickup", you're right.

In Nevada, Dems will gain a Las Vegas seat plus NV-02 if the Republicans nominate Angle.

Democrats could pickup AZ-01 with Kirkpatrick.

Yeah, maybe I was being to ambitious.

The obvious target would be Buerkle.

If I had to chose 1 other potential pickup, I'd say Hanna in the 24th.
