Current projections suggest Republicans will lose 6-8 governorships.

Why, it's on the calendar!

I knew what you were talking about in the sense that I knew what you were talking about. But I don't know what you were talking about in the sense that I no longer see why you were saying it.

Honestly - where are our jet packs?

I'm so glad I quoted for historical accuracy.

Here's one set of predictions based on current state polling.

It has the Democrats gaining Alaska, Colorado, Arkansas, Ohio, New York, Maryland, and Connecticut. Currently no gains are projected for the Republicans.

There are no gubornatorial races in Washington, Nevada, Montana, North Dakota, Missouri, Louisiana, Mississippi, Indiana, Kentucky, West Viriginia, Virginia, North Carolina, or New Jersey. All other states are potentially up for grabs.

Many of the states are very close and could easily change before November. Of the five currently project Democrat gains only in New York and Ohio is the Democratic candidate well in the lead. Massachusetts is probably only still close because they haven't had their primaries yet and once they do it seems reasonable to assume a quick Democratic swing (how in the world did Massachusetts end up with a Republican governor?).
