Schumer predicts Democrats will control Senate after 2024 elections
The Hill ^ | 12/15/2022 | JULIA MUELLER

Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Wednesday predicted that Democrats will keep holding on to the Senate through the 2024 presidential elections.

“I absolutely do, if we stick to our North Star, which is, help people with things that they need help with,” Schumer told NBC News.

Democrats fended off the Republicans’ hoped-for “red wave” during this year’s midterms and bucked the historical precedent of a sitting party losing big in the off-year elections.

The party kept the Republicans’ takeover of the House to a minimum and then expanded their majority in the Senate, bumping up their upper chamber advantage from the current 50-50 split to 51-49.

Schumer, who has been reelected to serve another term as Senate majority leader, told NBC that he was confident in the party’s 2024 prospects because of congressional Democrats’ recent legislative wins — and because of the clear contrast against Republicans.

What kind of a dumb question is that. Of course Schumer is going to say Dems will win. 2024 has no declared major Senate candidates so no one knows what will happen.

Their “North Star”

Drugs, selling the country out, racism, perversion for children, inflation, stealing, destroying our world position, eliminating resources.

What did I leave out?

The seats up don’t favor democrats but I’m sure McConnell is working on it.

Wait until Trump weights in on it with his picks.

We'll have 92-year old Joe Arpaio competing for Kyrsten Sinema's seat in Arizona and Carrot Top for Jackie Rosen's seat in Nevada.

"These two can't lose! I only pick the best!"

That is almost a sure thing, after 8 years of refining the cheating.

Of course they will. The FBI and the GOP will make sure of it. Now sit down and shut up all you contemptable MAGA Hobbits!

Doesn't matter how bad the candidates are, it only matters WHO COUNTS THE VOTES. They are clearly miles ahead in that race.

Considering there isn’t a single vulnerable Republican that is a very rich assessment

They believe that they’ve perfected their fraud machine and cannot be beaten.

if we stick to our North Star, which is, help people with things that they need help with

...like finding people who don't have mail in ballots yet, and then helping those people fill out those mail-in ballots for democrat candidates.

That's it. That's what their North Star is. What are republicans going to do about it.

As long as RINOs help Democrats cheat against MAGA candidates, this will be true.

It's up to the state legislatures to determine and enforce election law. Here's hoping those legislatures will find a backbone in 2023.
