Things may not be quite that bleak! According to Wikipedia, she's up for reelection next year. If that's accurate, it would be very good news!

Senatorial terms are very confusing to keep track of, imo. They serve 6 year terms, and their terms are staggered so that every 2 years a third of them go up for reelection. For example, I know one of my senators, Dick Durbin, would be up for reelection next year but has already announced that he's retiring after this term, which means whoever replaces him will be due to run again in 2032. But until I looked it up just now, I couldn't have told you that my other senator, Tammy Duckworth) will come up for reelection in 2028.
