(1/1)

Thirty-five Senate seats are up for grabs in November, but 11 of them could determine which party controls the Senate in the next Congress.

Republicans need to gain a net one seat to take back the majority in the upper chamber, which is currently split 50–50 but controlled by Democrats because the vice president casts tiebreaking votes.

Republicans’ opportunity to take over lies in seven toss-up elections and four elections that lean either toward Republican or Democrat, according to the most up-to-date RealClearPolitics map. The map shows Democrat incumbents in Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, New Hampshire, and Colorado will have to work to defend their seats, and the same goes for Republican incumbents in Wisconsin and Florida.

Up for grabs are open seats of retiring senators in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and Ohio.

Seven toss-up States, 4 currently Dem and 3 GOP.

Four States leaning to incumbent, 3 GOP and 1 Dem.

It really doesn't matter if the GOP wins all 11.  They will still be giving the Dems everything they ask for and getting nothing in return.
