In addition to the presidential race, it’s important to remember that there’s a huge, very important race coming up for control the US Senate Democrats have held a very narrow advantage 5149
they’ve already lost that advantage because Senator Manchin of West Virginia is retiring, and his seat will be taken by the Republican governor of West Virginia, who’s very, very popular. Now there are other states where we’re going to see things really move. The Democratic incumbent in Montana is now behind in every public poll, and the Republican is likely to pick up Montana. That would move it to 5149
there is a very vibrant race in Nevada. There’s a race in Arizona,
very strong Republican candidate Dave McCormick running in Pennsylvania, which will be a key state in the presidential race. There’s a little bit of a longer shot in Michigan
Governor Hogan, who’s very popular, personally, and who’s still running a race in Maryland, which is a very democratic state, but he’s personally so popular, he may win anyway. He’s certainly going to force the Democrats to spend a lot of resources trying to get to him out of the race because he is so popular.
Bernie Marino is a candidate in Ohio who’s doing a very, very good job, and Senator Brown is in trouble. Ohio is becoming more and more and more Republican, and that’s been a huge change over the last few years on the Republican side, I think you have to look at Senator Rick Scott in Florida, running for reelection, who now may have more of a race than he used to think, and that may be more of a challenge. Senator Ted Cruz in Texas may have more than a race than he expected, and that could be a challenge. On the other hand, both Texas and Florida have been moving towards the Republican Party by such huge numbers? People switching their registration, people moving in that in the end, it’s very likely that the Republicans will keep both those seats. If that happens, and as now looks, very likely they pick up Montana, then they’re in a position where any additional pickup that’ll already get them to a strong position at 5149
then if they start picking up Nevada or in Arizona or Pennsylvania,
Ohio, all of them start getting better and better. And you could see if President Trump ends up winning by a good margin. He will do so in part by carrying some of these key states. Pennsylvania is probably the best example. But he may could also carry Nevada by a good margin. And you see, you could end up having, I think, a pretty substantial opportunity here for the Republicans to actually have a four or five seed margin, and I think we’ll be watching this just as we’re going to report on the presidential race. We’re also probably at least once in October talk about what’s happening in the Senate races. So.
Key states for US Senate seats in November elections
By Straight Arrow News
While Kamala Harris faces off against Donald Trump in the upcoming presidential election, a number of important U.S. Senate seats are also up for grabs. Who wins those seats might determine which party controls the Senate — and perhaps all of Congress. As it stands currently, the U.S. Senate has 49 Republicans, 47 Democrats and 4 Independents, and the race in November is projected to be a close one.
Watch the above video as Straight Arrow News contributor Newt Gingrich lists the key states that he says Americans should watch for as the race to control the U.S. Senate approaches.

Democrats have held a very narrow advantage, 51-49 [Democratic majority]. They’ve already lost that advantage because Senator Manchin of West Virginia is retiring, and his seat will be taken by the Republican governor of West Virginia, who’s very, very popular.
Now there are other states where we’re going to see things really move. The Democratic incumbent in Montana is now behind in every public poll, and the Republican is likely to pick up Montana. That would move it to 51-49 [Republican majority].
There is a very vibrant race in Nevada. There’s a race in Arizona, very strong Republican candidate Dave McCormick running in Pennsylvania, which will be a key state in the presidential race.
There’s a little bit of a longer shot in Michigan. Governor Hogan, who’s very popular personally, and who’s still running a race in Maryland, which is a very Democratic state, but he’s personally so popular, he may win anyway. He’s certainly going to force the Democrats to spend a lot of resources trying to get to him out of the race because he is so popular.
Bernie Moreno is a candidate in Ohio who’s doing a very, very good job, and Senator Brown is in trouble. Ohio is becoming more and more and more Republican, and that’s been a huge change over the last few years on the Republican side.
I think you have to look at Senator Rick Scott in Florida, running for reelection, who now may have more of a race than he used to think, and that may be more of a challenge. Senator Ted Cruz in Texas may have more than a race than he expected, and that could be a challenge.
