The Senate Republican enjoyed a favorable map in the 2024 cycle as they flipped four seats from blue to red to win the majority back.

“Democrats have a historically low approval rating as candidates like John Ossoff and Chris Pappa prioritize radical policies like men in women’s games, protect the sanctuaries for criminal illegal aliens, and increase taxes on working families,” NRSC Director Joana Rodigies gave an argument in a statement for Fux News.
And Rodriguez said that “Republicans are distributing on policies that protect Americans and keep their hard -earned salary more to families and workers. Voters will reward us for this in 2026.”
