The five seats Republicans could flip to secure a Senate majority in 2024
By Emily Jacobs, Congressional Reporter
November 19, 2023 05:00 PM

Republicans working to retake control of the Senate only need to net wins in two swing races for seats held by Democrats to secure the majority.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has worked since last year on recruiting the most electable candidates in must-win swing states in hopes of avoiding a repeat of the Republicans’ disappointing performance in the 2022 midterm elections.

The Democrats control the Senate by a 51-49 margin. Republicans only have 10 incumbents up for reelection this cycle, while Democrats have 23.

Of those 23, there are five races that Republicans could flip in 2024.

We already know the Dems cheat by any means necessary in the last two States on that list and that Republicans do nothing to stop them.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Pipe dream for so long as we continue to have banana republic elections in several of those states.

Exactly....  If the GOP flips them, they'll likely be Super-RINOs anyway.

It might help if the republicans nominate candidates who ran for lower office and succeeded.  We know Trump will step on one rake after another, so the problem doesn't need to be compounded.

The stink of a Trump endorsement will sink anyone running.  The guy is loser.  Best to distance yourself from the  Mandarin Madman.

Democrats have more seats than Republicans to defend next year so it wouldn’t take much to flip the Senate


We may lose the House or our small majority may get narrowed

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

In Ohio, Democrat Sherrod (rhymes with Jared) Brown
always runs TV ads featuring "the dignity of work."
His advertising presents an image of him being a traditional, moderate Democrat
who is in tune with the working class.
And, on trade issues, he actually has agreed with Trump sometimes!
But on all other issues, his voting record is right in line with all the other lunatic leftists.
Anyone who opposes him needs to feature that in their advertising.

About Ohio electing only RINOs,
two years ago we elected J.D. Vance,
who has turned out to be a pretty reliable conservative!
If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion,
mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.
   -- John Stuart Mill

Here are the 10 RINOs who voted to impeach Trump on Jan. 13, 2021 - NEVER forget!
WY  Liz Cheney      SC 7  Tom Rice             WA 4  Dan Newhouse    IL 16  Adam Kinzinger    OH 16  Anthony Gonzalez
MI 6  Fred Upton    WA 3  Jaime Herrera Beutler    MI 3  Peter Meijer       NY 24  John Katko       CA 21  David Valadao
