Warnock's Senate seat will be immutable blue during the 2024 and 2026 elections. With Senate control coming down to the wire in every recent election, you can't overstate the significance of this. This is as strategically important in the medium term as the widened Democratic majority is in the short term.

That's called a 2 time Loser.
A Blue Senator was Reelected in a Red State.
Dt is Toxic in Geogia. Not to mention all his other endorsements who bit the dust.

(10,134 posts)be a challenge. One person I know I want gone is Sinema. She needs to be replaced by a real Democrat. Manchin is probably the only person who could win in W. Virginia, but I think his seat will be a loss next time.
Jon Tester in Montana and Sherrod Brown in Ohio might have tough races, given that both states have gone over to the dark side.
Just maintaining our numbers in the Senate, and taking back the House, will be a challenge in 2024.

(1,564 posts)In 2024, 1/3 of the 100-member Senate is up for election.
Don't quote me on this but I think it's about 24 Democratic Senators and 10-11 Republican Senators whose terms expire in January 2025, who will face election in November 2024. Defending 24 Senate seats could be a challenge.
Ossoff in Georgia is good until 2026, Warnock will face re-election in 2028.

(37,140 posts)No senate race in Georgia the next presidential election. No Herschel Walker latching onto a gop presidential candidates KKK robe.
There also will be no senate race here in ruby red Kansas. We have a dipshit senator, Roger Marshall. Since its Thursday Ill bite my tongue.

(17,085 posts)Fl. and Oh. are lost in 2024. I'm in Ohio and if Senator Sherrod Brown runs in 2024, I want to do all I can to get him reelected, and I want the Democratic Party to do all they can to support him, too. I don't want to hear gloom and doom. if Georgia reelected Sen. Warnock, Ohio can reelect Sen. Brown.

(17,085 posts)But Ohio is swirling down the drain. I'm a lifelong resident, and I've been horrified about the politics for a long time.

(32,850 posts)Ohio hasn't been 50/50 since before Reagan, am I right? That's not to say that Dems can't be elected in Ohio because they obviously can. Sherrod Brown is a good example, but how many rabbits can he pull out of his hat?
