I'm Looking for a Comprehensive Analysis of Congressional Seats This Year
Where can I find an analysis of what seats are up for grabs (in the House and the Senate) and the probability of them going either way?

I've seen some chatter about obtaining a filibuster-proof majority.

Thanks in advance!

:hi:

1. CQPolitics has a nice listing of the ratings of each Senate and House race

A filibuster proof majority in the senate looks unlikely. I'd say the high end is around 56 and the low end is around 53.

I don't worry about the house because the dems control all the committees there and only need a simple majority which the special elections have proven we will maintain for quite a while (minus major election fraud).

Wikipedia is decent too.
