Tim Scott Announces Candidacy for NRSC Chairmanship

Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) has announced his candidacy to lead the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), aiming to guide the party's efforts in the 2026 midterm elections. Scott, who has received endorsements from key Senate Republicans, including outgoing NRSC chair Steve Daines and incoming Senate No. 2 John Barrasso, emphasizes a strong partnership with former President Donald Trump to maintain and expand the Republican majority. The 2026 cycle presents challenges, with Republicans defending 20 of the 33 Senate seats up for election.

Pennsylvania's Senator Bob Casey seeks fourth term amidst GOP opposition.

The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) launched a digital attack ad against Democratic Senator Bob Casey of Pennsylvania, who announced his 2024 re-election campaign seeking a fourth six-year term. Republicans view Casey as vulnerable and aim to flip a Senate seat in the Keystone state. The digital ad labels the senator "shady" and spotlights what it claims are his connections to "scandal after scandal." The NRSC is courting Dave McCormick to take on Casey, who narrowly lost to Mehmet Oz in last year’s GOP Senate primary by less than 1,000 votes. Former state Sen. Doug Mastriano, a far-right Trump loyalist, is also mulling a bid.

Senate Republicans and Democrats gear up for 2024 elections.

Senate Republicans are working to avoid a repeat of the 2022 debacle that saw weaker candidates emerge from contested primaries and collapse in the general election, handing Democrats a 51-49 Senate majority. The NRSC is taking a more hands-on approach to primaries, actively working on candidate recruitment and vetting. The goal is to keep Trump aligned with Republican leadership, even as the former president has furiously attacked Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. Republicans are betting that their preferred chances will vastly improve with the help of big donors and nationwide fundraising.
