Looks like SC - 1 will probably go blue, GA - 7 will go blue, TX - 7
All these were expected to go Red.

(6,709 posts)but remember the House is so gerrymandered that even without voter suppression we have to win by 7-8% just to hold the majority. I found the high profile Senate and governor losses more discouraging.
No question we have a lot of work to do.
