As a result, Republican strategists are predicting the party will increase its numbers from 55 to 60--and possibly more, if G.O.P. challengers can eke out wins in close races in Wisconsin, Nevada, Washington and South Carolina, and if Republican incumbents can hold on in New York and North Carolina.
