The FULL 2026 Senate Map Breakdown - Which Seats GOP and Dems Will Pick Up, Plus the Battle For the Key Seventh Seat

In this special episode of “Next Up with Mark Halperin,” Mark uses his unparalleled sources to deliver a full-length reported monologue demonstrating that Democrats still have an extremely steep hill to climb to take back the Senate majority in November. Shattering the conventional wisdom, Mark breaks down in detail the nine races that will decide control of the chamber. He starts by analyzing the three seats currently held by Democrats they are most at risk of losing, explaining the political dynamics driving vulnerability and how Republicans are positioning themselves to capitalize. He then lays out the three most likely pickup opportunities for Democrats and what needs to go right to flip those seats. And then, he reports, even if Democrats go 6 for 6 in those contests, they still need to win one of the three Republican-held seats in Iowa, Alaska, and Texas to win the chamber. You have not heard the Senate map broken down like this anywhere else.
