SC is in play. Lindsay Graham(R) is in a close race to retain his seat. Democrat Jaime Harrison was in dead heat with Graham in a Quinnipiac poll 1 month ago. This would be the upset shocker Senate race of 2020 if Harrison(D) pulled off the win against Graham(R).

Kansas is also in play. Billionare Koch just donated some cash to the R 3 days ago because Barbara Bollier (Democrat) is polling neck and neck to the R in Kansas. Kansas could help turn the Senate blue.

Joni Ernst (R) - Iowa - is now backing Covid conspiracy theories. She is in a very close race and could lose votes over this, especially since Iowa in going through a big Covid spike right now. Iowa has a good chance to turn blue. Theresa Greenfield (D) is the challenger in Iowa. Dead heat race right now.

Anyone looking to donate to a Dem to turn the Senate blue: Barbara Bollier - KS (D) is a good choice, as well as Jaime Harrison- SC (D) and Theresa Greenfied -IA (D). Also NC, MT, GA, MI, AZ, CO and ME Dem candidates for US Senate. Maybe you can't vote for them due to being out of state, but you can donate. Evan small donations help.

Kansas

billionaire Charles Koch is dropping big bucks into the Kansas Senate race as polls show the contest beginning to tighten.... poll by Survey USA suggests the race is essentially a dead heat

What do you think the biggest upsets will be.
Biggest upset will be James winning Michigan.

Republicans pick up a net 1 seat to 54-44-2.

Every poll but one ever at RCP has had Peters ahead of James. It may get close but I think Peters wins in Michigan.

Gideon steadily ahead of Collins in Maine by 4-5 pts at RCP for 6 months. Probably narrows but something about Gideon's evaluation by the public probably has to change to change this projected outcome, imo.

That's why I picked it as the biggest upset.

Note that the most recent poll have James ahead and it was by Trafalgar who was the only poll to pick PA and MI right in 2016.

Collins always seems to pull it out. Late breakers always seem to go to her.

A bigger upset would be Lindsay Graham(R) - SC losing his Senate seat to challenger Jaime Harrison (D). This race is razor thin right now. A big Dem turnout in SC can kick Lindsey Graham out of the US Senate!!!

Collins won last time by 37 points, hardly just pulling it out.

Any of you folks ever spent time in Maine? They are not fond of out of staters telling them what to do.
I’m perfectly aware that many, of not most - Republicans dislike Collins, BUT - she does what a Senator is supposed to do ... she represent her State and works hard for them.

Out of State Money won’t win the Leftists the State of Maine, especially with a very flawed Candidate.
IF Lindsey Graham loses - it will the MAJOR upset of the Election and it will be his own fault.
TeeVee *** is not enough to win a Campaign. Interesting Times we live in.
