that is if they also win the presidency, and they will need 5 if Trump wins (most likely scenario). They will also have to hold Michigan and Minnesota which are both toss-ups now. Given there is no enthusiasm among the democrat base (I would almost say they are even demoralized) and enthusiasm among republicans is very high, I don't see them doing everything they need to do to win the senate - hold their close seats and pick off five R incumbents. My personal feeling is we will end up with 52- 53 seats with the VP tiebreaker
