Fight for control of state government runs through 3 Wisconsin Senate districts
Republicans currently hold a 22-10 majority in the Senate with one district vacant, meaning that if Democrats want a realistic chance at winning the chamber, they’d need to flip three to four seats this year, and two or three more in 2026.
If Democrats win majorities in the Senate and Assembly, and win the governor’s office in 2026, the “trifecta” would give them the power to set the agenda in state government, the same way Republicans did from 2011 to 2019 when Gov. Scott Walker was in office.
But if Republicans hold their ground this year, they could make it tough for Democrats to flip the Senate for years to come.
Here are a few of the districts that could tip the balance.
