Well-Funded Democrats Compete for Open House Seats In yet another sign Democrats are likely to pick up seats in the House of Representatives this year, CQ Politics notes that seven of the 10 best-funded House candidates in open-seat contests are Democrats. "The party's edge is even more pronounced when you consider that the three Republicans on this list are seeking Republican-held seats, so their victories would not help the Republicans come any closer to overturning the current 236-199 Democratic majority. By contrast, six of the seven Democrats on this list are seeking seats that Republican incumbents are leaving open; Democratic victories in one or more of those six seats would help the party augment its majority." politicalwire.com
