2022 Senate Overview: Advantage Republicans

April 1, 2022 at 2:21 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

Just for members: The latest edition of Inside Elections.

This issue is a 2022 Senate Overview featuring updated analysis and polling in all 35 races, as well as an overall projection for the chamber. Republicans are most likely to gain 1 to 3 seats, which even the lowest end of the range would be enough for a majority.

The edition also includes analysis of a House race in Rhode Island. It’s a Democratic seat, but if it gets more competitive later this year, it could be a sign of a big year for the Republicans.
