2024 Senate Elections
Of the 33 Senate seats up for election next term, 21 are held by Democrats, 2 by Democratic-leaning Independents, and only 10 by Republicans. That makes for a tough election cycle. The best way for Democrats to survive 2024’s lopsided Senate map is to get as many of their battle-tested incumbents as possible to run again.
Not all have decided or announced their intentions to run.
