Titus race ranked
The Rothenberg Political Report updated the status of 21 House of Representatives races.
In Nevada, the ground shifted, albeit slightly, in favor of Republicans seeking the seat held by Rep. Dina Titus-D-Nev.
Rothenberg now ranks the seat as leaning Democratic.
That's not as strong as Democrats favored. But it's well short of pure tossup.
Joe Heck and Rob Lauer are among the Republican challengers for the seat.
On Dec. 4, when a Mason-Dixon poll was showing Heck in a dead heat with Titus, Rothenberg political editor Nathan Gonzales said he wasn't sure the race would emerge as a big priority on the national stage.
"I don't see this as one of the top few dozen house races where we are going to see most of the focus," Gonzales said at the time. "If it becomes a top target for Republicans, I think that is a problem for Democrats."
