Just wanted to comment that The Downballot is so helpful with keeping track of what is happening election wise across the country. Without this Substack, I would be clueless and it all matters! Thank you David for your fabulous work.
Yes, thanks so much for this wealth of clear information!
Question: If there is no opposing party candidate listed for a given seat, does that mean that the missing party is not fielding a candidate? (For example, that's the case for IL house 5 through 11.)

I believe yes. I live in a single candidate district and that is definitely the case, no contest.
Most times nonentity candidates that raise next to nothing get skipped. The House entry is over 800 rows long!
Let me guess, the Dems are leading in fundraising in all aspects.
