A Look At Some Competitive House Races

The Hill weighs in with an article detailing some House races that will see strong rematches or challenges in 2010. These include Idaho's first district where Democrat Walt Minnick won a narrow victory over Republican Rep. Bill Sali, Hawaii's first district where Republicans might actually have a shot at an open seat, and a few California races including potentially weak Republican incumbents.

NOTE: While this article spotlights some interesting races, it does not necessarily focus on seats most likely to change hands in 2010. For example, the article does not discuss Republican Rep. Ahn Cao (LA-2), who is probably the most likely incumbent to lose his or her seat in 2010. Additionally, it does not include other districts that could be potentially very competitive, such as OH-15 and NJ-7, two districts that Beyond The Polls covered extensively in 2010.
