MSP: 15 for 17
DCA: 4 for 5
DTW: 1 for 1
ATL: 0 for 6!

I typically book my flights at least 7 days out so don't think that there's anything goofy going on with missing the Delta-TSA feed window. Weigh in with what your experience is. For reference I'm Diamond.
FWIW, when upgraded and PRE available have been 100%

Also FWIW, if you want to experience two different extremes, if PRE in MSP go through the PRE line (very positive and professional) vs. going through the G/C connector screening station on east end of parking. Unless pressed for time, will go out of way to go to main terminal for PRE vs. going through the joke of a checkpoint at the connector even if it means back-tracking through terminal to C or G gates.
