Taking back the house

So I feel like we have extreme momentum going at the top of the ticket.

I am fired up and ready to go.

I feel like the best use of my resources (intellectual, time and money) would be in taking back the House.

Where can I find info on the closest races? Where can I find aggregated data on all the races? I want to do some research and pick my spots. This year, for the first time in a long, long, long time, my financial resources are limited. But I want to do what I can with the phone and GOTV.

picking toss-up races or ones most likely to flip because I had the same idea of needing to work on the house.
But I also picked a couple of senate races because we MUST hold onto the Senate at all costs.

If you click on the senate races, you get polling data....
