Excellent presentation, Coop.
Thanks for the ping and for putting all of this great info together.
I plan on contacting campaigns to see how I can help, from TX....making calls, etc.
Have donated to several of these candidates.
WE NEED TO REMOVE THAT GAVEL FROM QUEEN NANTOINETTE’S COLD HANDS.
Cook Reports lists 91 seats that are competitive. Includes 41 that are currently DEM.
https://cookpolitical.com/ratings/house-race-ratings
Inside Elections has a shorter list of 68
Any seat not on those lists is all but certain not to flip this year.
My wife and I have now given to 41 House and Senate races, in addition to Trump. We used suggestions from here on Free Republic and from Ballotpedia.org.
We heavily encourage everyone to please do what you can. You can even make phone calls from home for the campaigns, which my wife did for the Trump campaign the week before. They gave her a webpage and you make calls over the Internet to peoples’ phones. There are plenty of other things, too.
The best run down of the close races is at Ballotpedia.org in the following links:

US House Races:

Yes? It's listed above.
Wow, that may be my first appearance on Twitter. :-)
I don’t drink alcohol, haven’t for decades. Well, I do have a couple beers on our favorite beach with my son once each year.
BUT, the day Nancy gets the boot, I’ll be found on a beach, watching a sunset while eating fresh homemade apple pie with vanilla bean ice cream and siping my way to the bottom of a bottle of expensive Brandy.
Bump
Coop, thank you for your work.
I live in the PA 17th district. Conor Lamb (D) is Congresswoman now. MANY Lamb commercials, few Parnell also. Seems to be multiples of Lamb (D) to every one Parnell (R). Lamb has very good commercials. Parnell now has good ones. He was playing one focused on his family, which my 78 year old mom liked very much. I found it hokey and amateurish acting.
it is very, very unlikely Trump will win 270 electoral votes and the election.

Trump's Ceiling Is Too Low for Him to Be Reelected
If Mr. Cook's presidential assessment is correct, his House ratings will likely be accurate. I think his 2020 POTUS race assessment is manure-like, much like his 2016 POTUS declaration on 10/13/2016:
“Take a close look at the new Fox News poll,” tweeted Charlie Cook, publisher of the Cook Political Report. “This race is OVER.”
Thanks to you and your wife for making a difference!
IOW.....Cook is cooked!!!
Thanks.
Wikipedia says all of City of Pittsburgh is in 18th, not 17th.

bump for later
FYI.....(overlook the source :)
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/08/10/house-gop-super-pac-adds-45m-to-fall-advertising-393071
We’ve seen ads, from this House PAC, in our area.
They’ve made a YUGE ad buys....
....House Republicans’ chief super PAC is booking another $45 million in fall advertising — a massive sum that will further define the congressional battleground as the GOP fights national headwinds to narrow Democrats’ majority.
The new buys, which are spread across 40 media markets, bring Congressional Leadership Fund’s total investment for the cycle to nearly $90 million, according to plans shared first with POLITICO. They include broadcast, cable and digital ads, as well as funding for mail programs, and will cover a mix of offensive and defensive targets.
That used to be the case but not anymore.
Take a closer look at your link to the 17th. It says that it contains all parts of Allegheny County that are not in the 18th.
The 17th was gerrymandered to give the Dems an edge in that district.
Sabato had 46 DEM seats that are in play
https://www.270towin.com/2020-house-election/index_show_table.php?map_title=sabatos-crystal-ball
If they are showing up on these lists, at least they are in the discussion. It’s been years since a seat flipped without being on these lists.
Yes, we could come up with another 20 Dems to add on.
