How many Democratic seats do you think the GOP will pick up in the House? How many do GOP held seats do you think the Democrats will pick up? What is the net change?

How many Democratic seats in the Senate do you think the GOP will pick up in the Senate? How many Republican seats do you think the Democrats will pick up in the Senate? What is the net change?

For the Senate, name the seats you think will flip.

I won't make this my final predictions - things could change in a day or two.

Senate - 7 seat pick up for the GOP.

House - If the dems come out to vote - 48 seats for the GOP.

If the dems stay home - 66 seats for the GOP.

Governors (super important) - 31 state houses for the GOP.

Pretty much agree with Sanrene:

about 7 or 8 senate seats

48-50 house seats

majority pick up on the governorships for the Republicans.

This should be a sticky until Nov. 3. Yes, I know election day is Nov. 2. I'm saying the day after.

My guess: 67 house seats, 8 senate seats, 7 governorships. If I had to bet under/over on these numbers, I'd take the over.

The non-partisan Crystal Ball (Larry J. Sabato's Crystal Ball) which is the source I trust the most, is calling the House at +55 Republican, the Senate at +8 Republican, and the Governors at +8/9 Republican.

I'm inclined to agree with that just because that website never seems to be wrong.
