NC(Tillis-R) is the only US Senate seat up for re-election in 2026 that is likely to change parties.

NC is a swing state. Tillis-R won all of his NC US Senate Elections(2014 and 2020) by a less than 2 percent margin. The Democratic nominee for NC Governor(Josh Stein-D) will get elected in 2024. The Democratic candidates for the 2026 NC US Senate Election will be Roy Cooper,Jeff Jackson,or Wiley Nickel.

Tuberville likely under indictment for Jan 6
Cotton as well for Jan 7
Cornyn as well

Lindsay Graham would lose
Moscow Mitch's days are numbered...

I see a lot of lot of vulnerable criminal rethugs

I suspect Collins will either retire or will finally be beaten. She can't hide anymore. Don't count out the Democrats beating Cornyn or particularly Sullivan, either.

The GOP will throw everything it has at Ossoff. And likely fail.
