Vermont

1. Peter Welch D vs. Mark Donka R (Obama 68*)- Safe D

* the source I am using for new districts says Obama won the district/state with 67% of the vote. However, the source that I have always used for the previous district said the number was 68%.  I am not regularly cross checking these numbers from the online spreadsheet I found, so I hope these district totals are accurate

VT predicted: 1 D, 0 R

Predicted:
175 D (96 Safe, 54 Likely, 18 Leans, 7 Tossup)
