D's gain in Ohio, Pennsylvania

NBC News is projecting incumbent Republican senators - Mike DeWine of Ohio and Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania - will lose to Democratic challengers.

Neither loss is all that much of a surprise. The real Senate races are in Virginia and Missouri.

UPDATE: CNN and NBC now project Democratic Senate candidate Ben Cardin as the winner in Maryland. Also, CNN is projecting Republican incumbent Sen. Lincoln Chaffee of Rhode Island as a loser to his Democratic challenger. That means the Democrats might have three of the six seats they need to take control of the Senate.
