Jennifer Duffy with the Cook Political Report tweets the following:
It’s a ratings-palooza kinda day: #ARSen Lincoln from Toss Up to Lean R, #WVSen from Likely D to Lean D, and #OHSen from Toss Up to Lean R
Bad day to be Lee Fisher…

The chart below provides a spectrum that analyzes the vulnerability (the chances of the seat switching parties) of the Senate races up this cycle.
Solid: These races are not considered competitive and are not likely to become closely contested.
Likely: These seats are not considered competitive at this point but have the potential to become engaged.
Lean: These are considered competitive races but one party has an advantage.
Toss Up: These are the most competitive races; either party has a good chance of winning.
