2026 House & Senate Elections
I know we are along ways away but there is already tv talking heads clamoring about it...
With the house currently at 219-212 with Mark Greens recent resignation and the democratic vacancies being filled by November the house will be 219-215. I see us winning the house (if we still have a democracy) even if it is just by a few seats.
How about the senate? I know it is a tough road for the DEMS because we are defending seats such as Georgia, Michigan and NH but we also have a good shot at NC and Maine. How about Ohio? Especially if Sherrod Brown jumps into that race? Alaska? The state is moving left. What about Mitch McConnell's' seat in KY? I know Andy Beshear said he was not running, what a shame.
Any thoughts here?
