CQ bumps Kratovil up

By Wally Edge

CQ Politics has changed its rating on the First District House race from "Safe Republican" to "Republican Favored," meaning "there is at least a slight and feasible chance of an upset" by Democrat Frank Kratovil.

The Cook Political Report has listed the seat as "Likely Republican" -- "seats are not considered competitive at this point but have the potential to become engaged" -- since Republican Andy Harris defeated Rep. Wayne Gilchrest in the primary.

Glad to see Kratovil gaining more momentum every day in this race. I think Frank is going to pull this off in November!
