Bottom line in New Hampshire: Hillary must win the state by a significant margin for Ayotte to be ousted. A close race will make it difficult, and a GOP win at the top of the ticket makes taking this seat nearly impossible for Democrats.
Bottom line nationally: As things stand now, Democrats probably need to win the presidency to win the Senate. Otherwise, they will have a hard time getting past 3-4 pickups, and they would need 5 for an outright majority without the presidency. Illinois and Wisconsin are favorable, Florida is very close, and they have plausible chances in a few other states, but not if they don't win the presidency.
