Delaware has gradually evolved into one of the more Democratic states in the country so there will be little good news for the GOP this fall. It is also one of the few states to have an election for Governor (well sort of).
President: The state has not voted Republican in 20 years and there is almost no chance that this will change in the near future.
Safe Democrat
Governor: Delaware is one of only 11 states to elect Governors in Presidential years and this is an open race since incumbent Ruth Ann Minner (D) is retiring. Minner has not been popular and this would usually give the GOP an opening but they are in such bad shape that it took them until a couple weeks ago to get someone willing to run.
Retired judge Bill Lee will be the Republican candidate while the Democrats ar picking between Lt. Governor John Carney and Treasurer Jack Markell. Either one would be heavily favored.
Democrat Favored
Senate: Incumbent Joe Biden (D) is heavily favored to win re-election to the seat he has held since he was 30 years old. Republican Christine O’Donnell will have the honor of losing this time around.
Safe Democrat
House: One of the few bright spots for the Republicans is former Governor and 8 term Congressman Mike Castle who will easily defeat any of his little known challengers.
Safe Republican
