14 Congressional Districts-- 14 Nightmares For Trump And The Republican Party

We're looking forward to the 2020 congressional races. By next week we're expecting more candidates to jump in. Several, in fact, haven't stopped working since November 6. These two lists of districts show seats that are now safely blue and seats that are so close that Democrats are almost assured taking them-- especially with Trump at the tope of the ticket, like a giant, squawking albatross around the necks of every Republican candidate, especially the ones who can be shown to have enabled him, like Chris Collins (NY), Don Bacon (NE), Rob Woodall (GA) and Rodney Davis (IL).

Of the 43 districts that flipped from red to blue 9 were resounding enough wins to indicate that these districts are now out of reach for Republican Party candidates-- at least until the Democrats start screwing up and not delivering on the promises that made voters turn out for them
