After Graham Platner exits, veteran Maine Democrat and Senate President Troy Jackson is emerging as the Democrats’ likely nominee for the U.S. Senate seat, backed by party support, fundraising momentum, and broad statewide backing as the 2026 race takes shape.
Democratic Senator Jacky Rosen is projected to win reelection in Nevada, defeating Republican challenger Sam Brown. Despite Donald Trump winning the state, Rosen's victory is part of a broader Democratic success in Senate races. The campaign focused heavily on abortion rights, with Rosen attacking Brown's past support for restrictive abortion measures. Brown, endorsed by Trump, faced challenges including accusations of being a carpetbagger and controversial positions on local issues like Yucca Mountain. Nevada voters also approved a measure to enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution.
