My predictions.
Obviously I have the benefit of new information that wasn't available in March. For example, William Daley has announced a bid for Governor of Illinois, and Lisa Madigan decided against it.
2013 elections New Jersey- Chris Christie Virginia- Terry McAuliffe
2014 Elections Alabama- Robert J. Bentley Alaska- Sean Parnell Arizona- Doug Ducey State Treasurer and former CEO of Cold Stone Creamery. He's wealthy, Republican and holds the type of office that's a stepping stone for political bids.
Arkansas- Republican This one's tough to the predict. As the likely Democratic nominee, Mike Ross seems to have a better shot that any of the declared Republicans, but whoever wins the Republican primary will likely be the favorite.
California- Jerry Brown Colorado-John Hickenlooper Slight favorite to win the general election, and there are so many potential Republican nominees.
Connecticut- Tom Foley Florida- Charlie Crist Georgia- Nathan Deal Hawaii- Neil Abercrombie He's vulnerable, but the top Democratic opponent decided to run for Senate.
Idaho- Butch Otter Illinois- William Daley Iowa- Terry Branstad Kansas- Sam Brownback Maine- Mike Michaud Maryland- Doug Gansler Massachusetts- Scott Brown More because the Democratic field is so crowded. Coakley will have to fight to be forgiven after her first loss to Brown.
Michigan- Rick Snyder Minnesota- Mark Dayton Nebraska- Don Stenberg Nevada- Brian Sandoval New Hampshire- Maggie Hassan New Mexico- Susana Martinez New York- Andrew Cuomo Ohio- John Kasich Oklahoma- Mary Fallin Oregon- No clue. Pennsylvania- Allyson Schwartz Although it's likely to be a toss-up if Corbett opts out, and another Republican wins the nomination.
Rhode Island- Gina Raimondo South Carolina- Nikki Haley She's a slight favorite.
South Dakota- Dennis Dauggard Tennessee- Bill Haslam Texas- Greg Abbott Vermont- Peter Shumlin Wisconsin- Scott Walker Wyoming- Matt Mead
