South Dakota.

I wonder why so few users are interested in South Dakota's gubernatorial election.
The fact that there's only been one poll so far, moreover a very close one, makes that race quite exciting for me.

[TheSaint250]

1. Iowa
2. Ohio
3. Georgia
4. Florida
5. Kansas

Iowa: Seeing who wins and the margin of victory may help to determine not only how IA-03 will turn out (since IA-01 is all but guaranteed to flip) but also other districts in the region that are viewed as competitive.  I would still give Kim Reynolds a slight advantage here, but if she is losing by a good amount, then that bodes well for Democrats.

Ohio: This is on the list for some of the same reasons as Iowa, though I don't think it's as good of a predictor.  Adding to this is the fact that it is one of the most hotly contested gubernatorial elections out there and seems to be a true tossup.

Georgia: Another one on here because of its being one of the most hotly contested.  If Stacey Abrams is doing really well (even possibly avoiding a run-off), then Democrats in GA-07 and GA-06 (in that order) may be able to flip both.

Florida: Andrew Gillum is all but guaranteed to win, so it is the margin of victory here that I am interested in.  If he is over performing, not only will FL-26 and FL-27 flip but FL-15 and FL-06 may flip as well.

Kansas: The outcomes of the House elections seem to be determined at this point, with KS-02 being the main wild card (though Paul Davis does hold a slight advantage).  This is just an election I want to see the outcome of.  Will Laura Kelly be able to beat back Kris Kobach and win enough votes despite Greg Orman remaining in the race?  This one will definitely be interesting to see on Tuesday.

I'm confident enough in my predictions of the other races.

The Ohio and Iowa races would tell me enough info about Obama-Trump places, and KS/SD would be nice for telling us just how big the wave is (like when Republicans won the dark blue states of MD, MA, and IL in 2014). FL because it's FL.

I'm surprised at how few people are interested in the South Dakota results, although that state has the longest Republican streak as to Republican governorships.

[Mr. Smith]

I'm surprised so many were asking about Ohio, I mean DeWine just doesn't lose and Cordray's consistently lost to the guy. Why change now?

Though I admit, I'm dumbfounded still that Edmondson lost by so much.
