🚨 Sabato’s Crystal Ball: 11 Races Move in Democrats’ Favor

With 34 days until Election Day, the non-partisan race rater Sabato’s Crystal Ball has moved 11 races in Democrats’ favor, including 9 Republican-held districts.

  • KY-06 – OPEN: Likely R → Lean R
  • ME-02 – OPEN: Likely R → Lean R
  • MO-02 – Wagner: Likely R → Lean R
  • MT-01 – OPEN: Likely R → Lean R
  • NC-03 – Murphy: Safe R → Likely R
  • OH-15 – Carey: Safe R → Likely R
  • VA-05 – McGuire: Likely R → Lean R
  • VA-01 – Wittman: Lean R → Toss Up

The ratings changes come as Democrats widen their lead on the generic midterm ballot and pile on ratings shifts, including 33 shifts from Cook Political Report, Sabato, and Fox News just last week.

DCCC Communications Director Courtney Rice: 
“House Republicans saddled hardworking families with price hikes on everything from gas and groceries to housing and health care. Five weeks out from Election Day, the American people are ready to turn the page on rising costs and broken promises, and elect Democrats to the House Majority.”
