My guess would be Chambliss, Harkin, Levin and Johanns. Early polls indicated it would have been a difficult race for Johnson and Rockefeller and I suppose they could have ended up like Pryor (polling indicated close races but the actual result was a strong Republican victory).

Chambliss (R-GA), Levin (D-MI), and Johanns (R-NE) would have held on. It is possible that either Harkin (D-IA) or Rockefeller (D-WV) could have held on but this was a GOP wave year so both of them would have likely still lost.

Chambliss, Harkin (I think maybe even with ease), Levin (by over 20 points), Johanns, and maybe, maybe Rockefeller.

Chamblins and Johanns. At that point, South Dakota and West Virginia were simply too red in 2014 for Rockefeller and Johnson to get re-elected to the Senate.

Yeah i was thinking the same thing. Levin would definitely have won as a long-term incumbent if Gary Peters was able to win with a double-digit margin in an open election, which was also in a unfavorable climate for the Democrats.

And i believe due to Harkin's incumbency, he would definitely have won by at least the margin Reynolds won by.

Levin would have beaten Lynn Land in a major landslide

All the GOP incumbents would hold on I think Rockefeller might have been able to hold on, and then maybe Harkin as well.
