But now the Democrat from New York is feeling buoyed by his party’s unity in the latest government funding fight, as well as by President Donald Trump’s worsening political standing, and he’s brimming with confidence about Democrats’ odds of retaking the Senate, seeing as many as eight seats in play in November.

**“I feel like we’re going to take back the Senate,” Schumer told NOTUS in an exclusive interview in his Senate office on Tuesday.**
That was his quote btw. He didn’t declare it as fact so consider the source. It’s what we’re up against.
FU Schumer. You communist pig.
Your criminal party may take the Senate back, Chuck. But you won’t be in it.

2026 Senate Polls and Outlook
The Senate map is more challenging for Democrats, who need a net gain of at least 4 seats for majority control (Republicans defend more seats overall).
Key recent state-level polls (general election where available):
Florida (special election): Moody (R) leads potential Democrats by 7-11 points in Emerson polls (e.g., Moody 46% vs. Vindman 38%).
Maine: Mixed signals. Some polls show Democrat Platner leading Collins (R) by 9 points (Maine People’s Resource Center, March); others show it close or Collins slightly ahead. Democratic primary favors Platner heavily.
Texas (GOP primary runoff): Cornyn narrowly leads Paxton (44%-43%).
Other early polls exist in states like Ohio (special) and Idaho, but many races lack recent head-to-head general election data.
Forecasts and markets:
Consensus forecasts (e.g., 270toWin) project Republicans holding a narrow majority (~51-49 or similar).
Prediction markets (Kalshi/Polymarket): Roughly 46-56% chance Democrats take the Senate (slight edge to Democrats in some, but volatile).
Battlegrounds include Maine, North Carolina, Georgia, Michigan, and potentially others like Texas or Alaska. Ratings from Inside Elections and others show most Republican seats as safe or leaning R, with a handful of toss-ups.
Democrats have a clearer path in some analyses due to map dynamics and early polling in vulnerable GOP seats, but Republicans remain favored overall by forecasters.
‘We’re Going to Take Back the Senate’
So we can finish burning it up comrades.
How will we know the difference?
Depends upon how much the democrats are able to cheat. Apparently it’s getting tougher for them.
He may be right. It all depends on the war. This war is very similar to Lincoln’s situation in the summer of 1864. The Union was winning but at great cost and, at that point, the war looked like it was in a stalemate. If nothing changed, Lincoln was going to lose the election. But then Sherman took Atlanta and everything turned around. If nothing changes in the Iran War, the Republicans will get destroyed in the Fall. Trump needs to do something to change the current dynamic. If he does, the polls will turn around.
They’ve already got control, thanks to John Thune.

Funny, but wrong.
Collins is a “rock” in Maine...no way a Dem takes it. She is a very powerful Senator, head of the Appropriations Committee...and she brings home the bacon.
