Professor X: Composite Portrait

in West Virginia, even odds in California, and a strong probability of Republican victories in North and South Dakota. After the bitter intramural Democratic fight in Maryland, culminating in the replacement of Millard Tydings by George Mahoney, that race is regarded as a shoo-in for incumbent Republican Senator Butler. The Democrats face an uphill fight to hold their two Senatorial seats in Tennessee, most observers foreseeing the loss of at least one.

With the retirement of Senator Lehman, the GOP has a chance to gain a seat in New York State. There is a school of thought that sees a possibility of electing a Republican Senator in Texas, because of Price Daniel’s expected retirement from the Senate if he wins the gubernatorial election. A wide-open Senatorial contest in Texas, with two or more Democrats splitting their party’s vote, could conceivably mean a victory for the Republican candidate. McKay in Oregon and Langlie in Washington are about even-money bets against Morse and Magnuson, and there is an outside chance of an upset in Missouri where Herbert Douglas is running against Senator Hennings.
