- This forecast uses the terms "Likely" and "Very Likely" the same way the other forecasts use the terms "Lean" and "Likely". To avoid confusion, and for the purposes of equivalency, the terms "Likely" and "Very Likely" will be changed to "Lean" and "Likely" for the purposes of this page. As well, "tossup" is labeled "uncertain", but for the purposes of this page, it will be labelled "tossup".
- This website uses two different forecasts, a "legacy" and "complete" forecast. The website treats their complete forecast as the primary one, and thus this page is using predictions from that forecast.
