I am basing my list of winners on the Washington Post's report of new House members compared to GOA's candidate ratings published in the newsletter. I can then see by default, which incumbents won or lost.
2 incumbents were upset and both were A-rated Republicans. One was Burns of Georgia, beaten by an unrated (no response) Democrat, Barrow. The other was Crane of Illinois, beaten out by an F-rated Democrat, Bean.
The only incumbent race I know much about is that Marilyn Musgrave of 2nd Amendment Caucus fame squeaked out a narrow win in her Colorado district.
All other new House members won open seats.
The list of new House members and their GOA ratings are as follows:
Lungren (R-CA) - F
Costa (D-CA) - F
Salazar (D-CO) - NR
Mack (R-FL) - NR
Schultz (D-FL) - F
McKinney (D-GA) - F
Price (R-GA) - A
Westmoreland (R-GA) - A
Barrow (D-GA) - F (unseated Burns (R-GA) - A)
Lipinski (D-IL) - NR
Bean (D-IL) - F (unseated Crane (R-IL) - A)
Davis (R-KY) - A
Jindal (R-LA) - NR
Schwarz (R-MI) - B
Carnahan (D-MO) - F
Cleaver (D-MO) - NR
Fortenberry (R-NE) - NR
Kuhl (R-NY) - A (that's a good one. Half of the NY delegation is F-)
Foxx (R-NC) - A
McHenry (R-NC) - A
Boren (D-OK) - NR
Fitzpatrick (R-PA) - NR
Schwartz (D-PA) - F
Dent (R-PA) - C
Inglis (R-SC) - B
Gohmert (R-TX) - A
Poe (R-TX) - A
Green (D-TX) - NR
McCaul (R-TX) - A
Conaway (R-TX) - B
Marchant (R-TX) - A-
Cuellar (D-TX) - NR
Drake (R-VA) - B-
McMorris (R-WA) - A
Moore (D-WI) - F
Remaining incumbent ratings are available on the GOA website, gunowners.org., noting that the seats will have been vacated equivalent to the new memberships listed above. I can provide district numbers to match, if requested.
I did count 14 Democrat incumbents rated B or better. There are some Republican incumbents who need work.
