What Is The Public Thinking?

This week, prediction markets put Democrats’ odds of winning all four core Senate seats—Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, and Maine—at 56%. Georgia and Michigan are the real pressure points: both are toss-up races in Trump-won states where organizing on the ground will make or break the outcome. Maine’s race is in flux as Democrats sort out their nominee ahead of a late-July deadline. Michigan’s primary is also coming up fast on August 4. These numbers shift week to week, and staying informed about where things stand matters.
