Schumer Plots ‘Durable Majority’ That Flirts with 60 Seats

“Sen. Chuck Schumer is already mapping out a target list for the 2028 elections, hoping Democrats can build ‘a durable majority’ that lasts for many years,” the Washington Sun reports.

“The Senate minority leader, who expects to win his race to become majority leader in a few weeks, pointed to a handful of states where Democrats just won big this month that Republicans must defend in two years. If their current lead in Alaska holds up, Democrats will have 56 seats next year, and any additional gains in 2028 would get them closer to the senatorial Holy Grail of a filibuster-proof 60-seat majority.”
