A lot of vulnerabilities…pomeline (79)in pennsylvania • 14 days agoThe Associated Press has called the Pennsylvania Senate race for McCormick.Big flip for Republicans. Casey is going to lose by a hair. So we will have a 53 seat Senate. That's hard Senate math for 2026.

The 2024 Senate map couldn't have been worse, especially when Manchin said he was retiring. That…bumblecat (78)in election • last monthThe 2026 Senate map is fairly reasonable, so Dems could get two shots at the Senate majority.Even just with SCOTUS, the election could easily be the difference between a return to a 5-4 court or a 7-2 court for years to come.
