Turning The Ballot Box Against Republicans

If the current polls are on track to predict the results of the 2022 midterms, Democrats will successfully keep control of the Senate, despite historical patterns that show the minority party with an advantage in the midterm elections.

With a month until Election Day, Democrats are poised to win in five of seven battleground states: Arizona, Georgia, New Hampshire, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Recent polling suggests Republicans are still on track to flip Nevada and Wisconsin.

Currently, the Senate is split 50-50, but Democrats get the advantage with Vice President Kamala Harris' tie-breaking vote. In order to stay in control over the Senate, Democrats need to hold onto 14 Senate seats. As of Friday, FiveThirtyEight shows Democrats with a 67 in 100 chance of keeping the Senate.

The GOP had been anticipating a massive red wave this November, and a shaky economy flogged by rising prices and recession fears had all but handed Republicans control of Congress. But the Supreme Court's Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision, which overturned the right to an abortion established in Roe v. Wade, boosted Democratic voter enthusiasm, while a number of policy wins for the Biden White House scored more points for the majority party.

(what do you call those types of sticker jokes?)
