CQ 2006 Election Forecast Map
D 203 Seats
R 220 Seats
No Clear Favorite 12
If the Downies collect all 12 seats in the "no clear favorite" category, they still fall 3 seats shy of winning the House.
And as President Bush's numbers improve, and gas prices continue to fall, more of these 12 seats will go Republican.
