We are now through 30 states with 20 more to go. If you haven’t taken a look at the state by state summaries please check the blog for each one.
7/29 Update: With the Stevens indictment today and bad polling on Young I am shifting both races from Leans R to Leans D
President: So far Senator Obama retains his lead over Senator McCain. The numbers from the first 30 states give him 181 Electoral Votes to 138 for Senator McCain.
This is a net Democratic Gain of 16 over the 2004 vote.
Senate: The Democrats are currently up three seats which would give them 53 seats (including ’Independent’ Senator Sanders of Vermont) to the Republicans 46. Senator Lieberman’s status is unclear. At this point he votes with the Democrats but there is talk they may kick him out of the party in 2009. If so he would probably side with the GOP.
So the numbers will probably be 52 Dems, 1 Ind Dem (53 total) to 46 Republicans and 1 unclear Independent.
At least so far.
House: So far the Democrats lead 145-111 which is a net gain of four seats from the current 233-202 majority.
Governor: No changes other than Missouri gain for the Democrats which would give them a net edge of 29-21.
