In reply to the discussion: Trump: 'Prepared' to nominate new Supreme Court justice if Alito, Thomas retire [View all]BumRushDaShow
(170,517 posts)38. There are 33 seats up
Here is the breakdown - https://www.270towin.com/news/2025/01/03/introducing-2026-senate-interactive-map_1688.html

We are hoping to get 4 "competitive" (R) seats (ME, NC, IA, OH). There are 2 others that could add on (MT & AK).
We have 13 of the 33 that are (D)s.
I know some keep staring at TX but I don't think that is happening. Too much heartbreak after O'Rourke and Allred losses.
