According to a new report, Democrats are now favored to retain control of the Senate in the upcoming midterm elections for the first time according to the election website FiveThirtyEight.

As Newsweek reports:

The website late on Tuesday showed the Democrats had a 52 percent chance of keeping the Senate majority, while the Republicans had a 48 chance.

There had been consensus for a long time that the Republicans will win back the Senate this fall, buoyed by high inflation and economic downturn under Democrat Joe Biden‘s presidency.

FiveThirtyEight believes that the Republicans have selected some “weak candidates” in some key races, meaning that they are less likely to take the upper chamber than previously predicted.

The website’s Senate forecast has changed since it began polling in early June. Back then, the Democrats were only predicted to have a 40 percent chance to keeping the Senate, with the Republicans 60 percent chance of taking it. Since then, the Democrats have grown in popularity and now for the first time have overtaken the Republicans, and are on course to keep the Senate.

The midterm elections will be held on November 8th, 2022 with 35 of the nation’s 100 Senate seats being contested.

  1. Wouldn’t count on it! Democrats are not too popular and I don’t see it getting any better. Notice they did not mention exactly WHO the “weak” candidates are? Just like all their anonymous reporting. Nothing but fiction!

  2. If they are trying to say they’re ahead, it won’t be because of we the people!! It will be because of their cheating schemes! Everything these criminals try to do will fail because God is not on their side!! Their times are coming to an end!!

    1. They are ahead in their ability to steal elections. Unless American citizens get serious about stopping the election fraud and prosecuting those who are responsible, no future elections are likely to reflect the will of the majority of American citizens

  3. WHO ARE THESE FOOLS WHO THINK THE DEMOCRATS ARE GONNA WIN ANY SEATS IN THE SENATE?? DONT YOU IDIOTS KNOW THAT THOSE BLUE AND PURPLE STATE ARE CHOMPING AT THE BIT TO GET RID OF THESE STUPID LIBERALS IN CONGRESS?? IT DOESNT MATTER HOW WEAK THEIR OPPONETS ARE, THEY ARE WAYYYYY BETTER THAN HAVING A FU***NG LIBERAL DEMOCRAT IN OFFICE WHO ARE WILLING TO KILL EVERYTHING GOOD IN AMERICA. YOU NEED TO FIND A NEW JOB…..YOU PREDICTIONS ARE WRONG AND YOU AINT WORTH A SH*T AT IT.

  4. I find it hard to believe Democrats could win anything without cheating, ballot harvesting, mass producing fake ballots, etc…. They’re all a bunch of self-serving individuals who care about nothing but themselves and ordering others what to do!

  5. I don’t know how they’re favored now? Everything they’ve done has hurt Americans financially and it’s only going to get worse. November is right around the corner and you know what that means? Climate Change, that’s right, Fall will be here and we all know it gets cooler!

  6. “Since then, the Democrats have grown in popularity and now for the first time have overtaken the Republicans, and are on course to keep the Senate.”

    Why – or how – has the democrats grown in popularity?? The country is being destroyed and they have “grown in popularity”????

  7. If the Dems win any seats in either h9use it will only because they find new ways to cheat. Certainly, no reasonable person will vote for a crooked biden loving dem.

  8. The democrats lacked common sense when it came to the 2020 elections, but most of it wasn’t their fault because of the corruption and coverups and lies of the democratic politicians and the news media like news stations CNN AND MSNBC. Joe Biden announced he was going to open up the southern border and prevent and eliminate all fracking for oil. He definitely had signs of dementia at the time which the democratic politicians and the fake news media covered up from the American people not to mention he and his son were compromised by the Russians, China and Ukraine. But the republicans mostly knew this because of seeking out fact and truthful information that came from the conservative media like FOX news and Donald Trump himself. Not to mention the election process was corrupted before and during the elections which is mainly the reason Donald Trump lost, thanks to the China virus sent intentionally by China although they deny that. This time the failures of the democratic administration and their party are known to all the American people. Unless the democrats voters still believe the lies of the democratic politicians and the false media stations backing up their corrupt agenda the democrats will vote accordingly to their common sense and their wallet and purses. I’m sure most democrats don’t believe that crime in our society is good and shouldn’t be rewarded and ignored but punished.

  9. The only polling I listen to is Trafalgar. They have been, far and away, the most accurate polling and predictors since 2012. They appear to have the GOP flipping 7 seats to take the Senate, and between 45 and 65 seats to take the House. I don’t think they account for the Dem’s massive voter fraud scheme coming, so I think it will be closer, but it looks likely the GOP gets both the House and Seanate in Nov. What we need is a veto-proof congress to undo the tragic mess the Dems and Obama (oh, I mean Biden) have created over this past 2 years.

  10. I really don’t believe this article is correct, there is one seat I am a little worried will be blue come November and that is Pennsylvania’s. There is John Fetterman D, Lt. Governor of PA and previous Mayor of Braddock the 15104 he’s extremely popular and a Strong candidate. Running against him is Dr Oz R who resides in New Jersey not PA and everyone is aware of this Fact. Another strike Oz has against him is the Fact that he is a member of the World Economic Forum which is also a well known Fact and the Conservatives of Pennsylvania aren’t into globalists. Sorry not sorry! He should have never been backed by Trump I actually heard Trump say during an interview that there was a candidate in PA which he had made a mistake in backing. We all know it’s Oz
