The Races: U.S. House

The general consensus is that the Republicans will pick up seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. Cook currently suggests that the Republicans will gain between 2 and 12 seats. Larry Sabato’s Crystal Ball suggests the GOP pickup will range from 5 to 8 seats. (Cook Political Report is my bible for the data below.)
