2018 US House Election in NC-9 and WV-3 should be in the Tossup category Likely Republican.

NC-9 Republican incumbent was defeated in the primary yesterday by a Rightwinger. Democrats nominated an Iraq War Veteran/businessman. McCready-D narrowly defeats Harris-R
WV-3 Democratic candidates received more votes than the Republican candidates in yesterday's election.

vs a Nazi traitor?

At this point anyone with an R after their name has to go into the nazi traitor category.

Sorry, I know that sounds harsh, not my rules.

I could see them leaning Republican for right now. If they are tossup, we will know sometime during the summer. It's early, and anything could happen. I think NC9 will become tossup.
