On the Ballot Nathan Gonzales on the House's 10 toss-up races
On this special video episode: All 435 House seats are up for grabs this year, but, as is often the case, the balance of power will come down to around a dozen key races around the country. Republicans are looking to hold onto their slim 221-214 majority, as Democrats seek a net gain of 4 seats to flip the lower chamber.
Nathan Gonzales, the publisher and editor of the nonpartisan ratings outlet Inside Elections, joins producer Frank Festa to unpack the path to the House majority for both parties and run through the toss-up races that promise to be the most competitive this November.
*NOTE* This episode was recorded on March 19th, before the House news at the end of the last week. Nathan still considers the balance of power 221-214 because Inside Elections, "keep seats assigned to a party until/unless they flip in a special election."
