I think Roll Call is clueless. Do they read polls?
“But it does mean North Dakota belongs in the most competitive echelon of Senate races with Virginia, New Mexico and Nevada.”
New Mexico? Henrich (D) leads by 7.7% at RCP (winnable by our side but certainly not in the most competitive four). Obama is crushing (+10) in New Mexico as well. Not even in the top NINE most competitive at RCP.
Nevada? Heller has lead in every poll since May and his scandal-ridden opponent is not looking too good. Another minor Flub by Roll Call to include this in the top four most competitive. I put it about fifth or sixth
North Dakota? Berg leads by 5.0 at RCP (it’s barely in the tossup category—How did they miss Massachusetts—closest senate race or Montana or recently Missouri. Romney leads Obama 51-36 in ND. I think Berg will be fine in the end. I’d put it about seventh (not Top 4)
My 4 most competitive would be VA, MA, MT and MO. Indiana only had Mourdock by +2 last month (Rasmussen) so this could also be more competitive than ND.
Even CT?! is looking more competitive very recently than New Mexico
