In the House, Democrats need a net gain of 23 seats. They are favoured to win 18 Republican party seats, according to the Cook Political Report, and Republicans are favoured to win two Democratic seats. But there, the map was even tougher, with Democrats defending 10 Trump states and Republicans defending only one won by Hillary Clinton. This would require the House Republican party holding the vast majority of those toss-up races, possibly because of rising enthusiasm from Trump's fear-infused, immigration-focused base strategy. Maybe Democrats win the House, but Republicans pick up a few Senate seats.
