Republicans Secure Senate Majority, Eye House Control in 2024 Elections

Senate Republicans are on the verge of securing a 54- or 55-seat majority, bolstered by former President Trump's strong performance in swing states. This potential majority could provide a buffer against internal party dissenters and make it more challenging for Democrats to regain control in 2026. The GOP's success includes Bernie Moreno's victory in Ohio, and they are hopeful for wins in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, with votes still being counted. Despite initial conservative projections, GOP optimism grew as results came in.
