随着2026年选举日的倒计时日益临近，民主党对在今年中期选举中夺回参议院多数席位越来越乐观。
“我们将夺回参议院。共和党曾以为胜券在握，但如今民主党正走在胜利的道路上。我们彻底打乱了选举版图，”来自纽约的参议院民主党领袖、参议员查克·舒默上周如是吹捧道。
舒默这番表态是在无党派领先选举分析机构库克政治报告将得克萨斯州和艾奥瓦州的关键参议院竞选从“倾向共和党”调整为“势均力敌”之后作出的。
作为当前执政党，共和党本就面临着中期选举年国会席位流失的传统政治逆风。再加上持续的通胀、民调显示不受欢迎的伊朗问题相关高油价战争，以及总统唐纳德·特朗普低迷的支持率，让局势对其更具挑战性。

但民主党在试图中期选举夺回参议院控制权的过程中也有自身的麻烦，包括民调显示其政党形象极不受欢迎。今年春夏两季，左翼和社会主义候选人在民主党初选中击败建制派对手的高调胜利，也给了共和党额外的弹药，将所有民主党人描绘成极端分子。
民主党争取多数席位的路径始于守住密歇根州的开放席位。本月初初选，极左翼候选人阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德以微弱优势击败更为温和的众议员黑利·史蒂文斯。埃尔赛义德的胜出，以及最新民调显示他尚未团结党内基础，而前共和党众议员迈克·罗杰斯在无对手的情况下轻松获得共和党提名，这使得在最新的福克斯新闻实力排名中，该席位从“倾向民主党”调整为“势均力敌”。
目前的实力排名中，有六个州两党均不占优势：密歇根州，以及艾奥瓦州、得克萨斯州、俄亥俄州、缅因州和阿拉斯加州的共和党控制席位。
全国共和党参议员竞选委员会主席蒂姆·斯科特参议员今年早些时候告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，他“极为乐观”，共和党不仅能守住，还能扩大其目前在上议院53比47的多数优势。

斯科特依然保持乐观，他周日在NBC新闻《与媒体见面》节目中接受采访时表示：“我非常有信心，今年11月底我们将继续保持多数席位。”
以下是可能改变参议院权力平衡的最具竞争力的席位盘点，从福克斯新闻实力排名中可争夺的席位开始。
势均力敌的州
1. 密歇根州
这个大湖区战场州的现任民主党参议员加里·彼得斯即将退休，对共和党来说是绝佳的翻盘机会。
作为共和党连续两届的参议院候选人，罗杰斯在两年前的选举中以约550万张选票中的2万票差距惜败。

在埃尔赛义德努力在与史蒂文斯激烈的初选后团结党内基础之际，罗杰斯正加大力度争取那些可能对其提名候选人在关键问题上的极左翼立场不满的民主党人。
2. 得克萨斯州
全国政治环境也让州众议员詹姆斯·塔拉里科受益，他有望成为自1988年以来首位在右翼倾向的得克萨斯州赢得参议院选举的民主党人。
塔拉里科今年迄今筹集了约6000万美元资金，这是一个令人惊叹的数字。他在3月初的初选中击败了众议员贾斯敏·克罗克特，获得民主党提名。
他将在大选中与获得特朗普支持的得克萨斯州总检察长肯·帕克斯顿对决。

这位“让美国再次伟大”阵营的激进分子背负诸多政治包袱，在一场代价高昂且激烈的共和党提名战中历经多轮投票，击败了长期任职的得克萨斯州共和党参议员约翰·康恩。
福克斯新闻实力排名最近将得克萨斯州的竞选从“倾向共和党”调整为“势均力敌”。
3. 缅因州
温和派共和党参议员苏珊·柯林斯正在蓝色倾向的缅因州寻求第六个六年任期的连任。
柯林斯是今年在2024年总统选举中副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯获胜的州中，唯一一位寻求连任的共和党参议员。
但这位长期任职的参议员多年来一直是民主党人的主要攻击目标，事实证明她很难被击败。

柯林斯的对手是民主党提名候选人、前缅因州参议院议长特洛伊·杰克逊。
杰克逊在上个月的州党代会上以压倒性优势获得提名。他取代了牡蛎养殖户、退伍军人格雷厄姆·普拉特纳，后者在6月的民主党参议院初选中胜出，但因一系列争议退出竞选，包括一名与其约会过的女性提出的强奸指控，他对此予以否认。
福克斯新闻实力排名将该席位评为“势均力敌”。
4. 俄亥俄州
去年，前参议员谢罗德·布朗宣布将挑战共和党参议员乔恩·赫斯特，这让民主党在招募候选人方面取得重大胜利。
赫斯特曾担任副州长，一年前在时任参议员JD·万斯辞职担任特朗普的副总统后被任命进入参议院。

俄亥俄州曾是顶级的大选战场州，但在过去十年中已坚定转向红色阵营。民主党人认为布朗是这场竞争剩余两年万斯任期的唯一有竞争力的候选人。
布朗在2024年的连任选举中以约4个百分点的差距落败，而特朗普在俄亥俄州以11个百分点的优势胜出。
福克斯新闻实力排名将该席位评为“势均力敌”。
5. 艾奥瓦州
共和党正在捍卫艾奥瓦州的开放席位，这个曾经的摇摆州在过去十年中转向了右翼。

但共和党已团结在众议员阿什利·希金森周围，她获得了特朗普的支持，将接替即将退休的共和党参议员乔尼·恩斯特。
希金森曾是当地电视新闻主播，2020年翻转了民主党掌控的席位，被视为党内的后起之秀。

州众议员乔希·图雷克是一名残奥会选手，他在一场竞争激烈且代价高昂的民主党初选中击败了更为进步的州参议员扎克·瓦尔兹。在这个美国顶级农业州之一，高通胀、农民成本飙升以及经济增长疲软为图雷克提供了助力。
特朗普在2024年以两位数优势赢得该州，但福克斯新闻实力排名将该参议院竞选评为“势均力敌”。
6. 阿拉斯加州
2月，前众议员玛丽·佩尔托拉宣布将挑战共和党现任参议员丹·沙利文，这给民主党在这个红色倾向的州带来了巨大提振。
佩尔托拉在2024年阿拉斯加州单一国会选区的连任选举中以3个百分点的差距落败，而特朗普在阿拉斯加州以11个百分点的优势胜出。

作为首位代表该州进入国会的阿拉斯加原住民，佩尔托拉的助力因素还有另一位丹·沙利文将出现在大选选票上，这位前教师在5月宣布参选。
共和党人批评另一位沙利文的参选可能是为了在这场关键的参议院竞选中迷惑选民，该候选人对此予以否认。

福克斯新闻实力排名将阿拉斯加州的竞选评为“势均力敌”。
共和党掌控席位，民主党目标翻转
北卡罗来纳州
共和党正在捍卫这个东南部战场州的开放席位，共和党参议员汤姆·蒂利斯今年年底将退休。
共和党迅速团结在前共和党全国委员会（RNC）主席迈克尔·沃特利周围，他在2024年选举中领导全国共和党委员会后获得了特朗普的支持。

与此同时，前两届州长罗伊·库珀一年前宣布参选，让民主党招募到了顶级候选人。库珀在北卡罗来纳州拥有极高的知名度，在全州竞选中共取得6胜0负的战绩。
北卡罗来纳州在2024年大选中支持特朗普，但福克斯新闻实力排名目前将该竞选评为“倾向民主党”。
民主党掌控席位，共和党目标翻转
新罕布什尔州
共和党在新罕布什尔州看到了另一个翻转机会，该州作为新英格兰唯一的摇摆州，其长期由民主党掌控的参议院席位因参议员珍妮·沙欣退休而开放。沙欣是美国历史上首位同时当选州长和参议员的女性。

四届众议员克里斯·帕帕斯预计将在9月初的州初选中获得民主党参议院提名。
与此同时，获得特朗普背书的前参议员约翰·E·苏努努有望在共和党初选中击败前参议员斯科特·布朗，后者曾担任特朗普第一任期驻新西兰大使。
苏努努是前州长克里斯·苏努努的兄长。
福克斯新闻实力排名目前将该竞选评为“倾向民主党”。
佐治亚州
共和党认为首任参议员乔恩·奥索夫是2026年寻求连任的民主党人中最脆弱的一位。

奥索夫在2020年的选举中首次当选，在这个东南部战场州为连任筹集了巨额资金，而共和党在这个关键的阳光地带战场州经历了一场激烈的三方初选争夺提名。
在11月的中期选举中，奥索夫将面对共和党众议员迈克·柯林斯，后者在该州6月共和党初选决选前夕获得了特朗普的背书。

佐治亚州在2024年大选中以微弱优势支持特朗普，但福克斯新闻实力排名目前将该竞选评为“倾向民主党”。
机会渺茫的扩张席位
内布拉斯加州
共和党现任参议员皮特·里基茨曾担任州长，正在这个红色倾向的州寻求参议院的首个完整六年任期。
他将在中期选举中与前工会领袖丹·奥斯本对决，后者是一名独立候选人，得到民主党相关团体和 donors 的支持，这是他第二次竞选参议院席位。

福克斯新闻实力排名将该竞选评为“大概率共和党”。
堪萨斯州
共和党参议员罗杰·马歇尔正在寻求连任第二个任期。他的对手是民主党提名候选人、牧师亚当·汉密尔顿。
福克斯新闻实力排名最近将该竞选从“稳固共和党”调整为“大概率共和党”。
明尼苏达州
民主党参议员蒂娜·史密斯的退休让共和党看到了在这个蓝色倾向的州翻转席位的希望。
前NBC体育记者、保守派评论员和活动家米歇尔·塔福亚赢得了共和党提名。她将面对进步派副州长佩吉·弗拉纳根，后者在民主党初选中击败了更为温和的众议员安吉·克雷格。

12 races scramble Senate battlefield as Democrats eye comeback
2026-08-27T13:11:54-04:00 / Fox News
With the clock quickly ticking toward Election Day 2026, Democrats are increasingly optimistic about recapturing the Senate majority in this year’s midterms.
“We are going to take back the Senate. Republicans thought they had the Senate locked down, but now Democrats, we are on the path to victory. We’ve blown the map wide open,” longtime Senate Democratic Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York touted last week.
Schumer made his prediction to reporters after The Cook Political Report, a leading nonpartisan election handicapper, shifted crucial Senate races in Texas and Iowa from leaning towards the GOP to toss up.
Republicans — as the party currently in power — were already up against traditional political headwinds that have historically led to a loss of congressional seats during midterm election years. Add to that the challenging climate fueled by persistent inflation, high gas prices tied to what polls show is an unpopular war with Iran and President Donald Trump’s underwater approval ratings.
CHECK OUT THE LATEST FOX NEWS POWER RANKINGS IN THE BATTLE FOR THE SENATE
But Democrats have problems of their own as they try to win back control of the Senate in the midterms, including a party brand that public opinion polling indicates is extremely unpopular. And high-profile victories this spring and summer by left-wing and socialist candidates over establishment rivals in Democratic primaries are giving Republicans extra ammunition to portray all Democrats as extremists.
The Democrats’ path to the majority starts with holding the open seat in battleground Michigan, where far-left contender Abdul El-Sayed edged out more moderate Rep. Haley Stevens in this month’s primary. El-Sayed’s victory, and recent polling that suggests he’s yet to unify his party’s base while former Republican Rep. Mike Rogers cruised to the GOP nomination unopposed, pushed the race from leaning towards the Democrats to toss up in the latest Fox News Power Rankings.
The Power Rankings currently include six states where neither Democrats nor Republicans have an edge: Michigan, along with GOP-controlled seats in Iowa, Texas, Ohio, Maine, and Alaska.
Sen. Tim Scott, the chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, told Fox News Digital earlier this year that he was “incredibly optimistic” the GOP can not only hold but expand its current 53–47 majority in the upper chamber.
WHAT THE LATEST FOX NEWS POLLS IN KEY MIDTERM RACES SHOW
Scott still feels optimistic, saying in an interview Sunday on NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” “I am very confident that we will be in the majority at the end of November this year.”
Here’s a look at the most competitive Senate seats in play that could potentially flip the balance of power in the chamber, starting with the races in the Fox News Power Rankings that are up for grabs.
The Toss-Up States
1. Michigan
The race in the Great Lakes battleground state, where Democratic Sen. Gary Peters is retiring, is a top flip opportunity for Republicans.
Rogers, who is the GOP Senate nominee for a second straight cycle, came within 20,000 votes of victory two years ago, out of roughly 5.5 million cast.

As El-Sayed works to unify his party’s base after a combustible primary battle with Stevens, Rogers is increasing his efforts to court disaffected Democrats who may not be thrilled with their nominee’s far-left positions on key issues.
2. Texas
The national environment is also boosting state Rep. James Talarico, who is hoping to become the first Democrat since 1988 to win a U.S. Senate election in right-leaning Texas.
Talarico, who has hauled roughly $60 million in fundraising so far this year, an eye-popping figure, defeated Rep. Jasmine Crockett in the March primary to secure the Democratic nomination.
He’s facing off in the general election against Trump-backed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.

The MAGA firebrand, carrying plenty of political baggage, ousted longtime Republican Sen. John Cornyn of Texas in an expensive and combustible GOP nomination battle that went into overtime.
The Fox News Power Rankings recently shifted the race in Texas from lean Republican to toss up.
3. Maine
Moderate Republican Sen. Susan Collins is running for re-election for a sixth six-year term in blue-leaning Maine.
Collins is the only Republican senator running for re-election this year in a state that then-Vice President Kamala Harris carried in her 2024 presidential election bid against Trump.
But the longtime senator, who has been a top Democrat target for multiple election cycles, has proven tough to beat.

Collins is being challenged by former Maine state Senate President Troy Jackson, the Democratic nominee.
Jackson was overwhelmingly backed for the nomination last month at a state party convention. He replaced oysterman and combat veteran Graham Platner, who won the June Democratic Senate primary but quit the race amid a slew of controversies, including an allegation of rape from a woman he previously dated, which he denied.
The race is rated a toss up in the Fox News Power Rankings.
4. Ohio
Democrats scored a major recruiting victory last year when former Sen. Sherrod Brown announced he would challenge Republican Sen. Jon Husted.
A former lieutenant governor, Husted was appointed to the Senate a year ago after then-Sen. JD Vance stepped down to serve as vice president to Trump.

Ohio, once a premier general election battleground, has turned solidly red over the past decade, and Democrats view Brown as their only competitive candidate in the race to serve the remaining two years of Vance’s term.
Brown lost re-election in 2024 by roughly four points while Trump carried Ohio by 11 points.
Ohio is listed as a toss up in the Fox News Power Rankings.
5. Iowa
Republicans are defending an open seat in Iowa, a onetime swing state that’s shifted to the right over the past decade.

But the GOP rallied around Rep. Ashley Hinson, who is backed by Trump, in the race to succeed retiring Republican Sen. Joni Ernst.
Hinson, a former local TV news anchor who flipped a Democratic-held seat in 2020, is seen as a rising star in the party.

State Rep. Josh Turek, a Paralympian, won a contested and expensive Democratic primary over more progressive state Sen. Zach Wahls. Turek is boosted by high inflation, soaring costs for farmer, and lagging economic growth, in one of the nation’s top agricultural states.
Trump carried the state by double digits in 2024, but the Senate race is rated a toss-up in the Fox News Power Rankings.
6. Alaska
Democrats were given a big boost in the red-leaning state when former Rep. Mary Peltola announced in February that she would challenge GOP incumbent Sen. Dan Sullivan.
Peltola lost re-election in 2024 in the at-large district that covers the entire state by three points, while Trump carried Alaska by 11 points.

Benefiting Peltola, the first Alaska native to represent the state in Congress, is the appearance on the general election ballot of a second Dan Sullivan, a former teacher who announced his campaign in May.
Republicans have criticized the other Sullivan’s candidacy as a likely ploy to confuse voters in a crucial Senate race, which the candidate has denied.

The race in Alaska is rated a toss up in the Fox News Power Rankings.
GOP-held seat Democrats aim to flip
North Carolina
Republicans are defending an open seat in the southeast battleground state, with GOP Sen. Thom Tillis retiring at the end of this year.
The GOP quickly rallied around former Republican National Committee (RNC) Chair Michael Whatley, who has Trump’s backing after steering the national party committee in the 2024 election.

Democrats, meanwhile, landed their top recruit when former two-term Gov. Roy Cooper jumped into the race a year ago. Cooper enjoys tons of name recognition in North Carolina and is 6-0 when it comes to running statewide races.
North Carolina voted for Trump in the 2024 election, but the Fox News Power Rankings currently rate the race as lean Democrat.
Democrat-held seats the GOP aims to flip
New Hampshire
Republicans see another flip opportunity in New Hampshire, where a long-held Democratic Senate seat in New England’s only swing state is opening thanks to the retirement of Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, who is the first woman in U.S. history to be elected governor and senator.
Sen. Janine Shaheen, D-N.H., the first woman elected governor and U.S. senator in the nation’s history, is not seeking re-election in 2026.(Nathan Posner/Anadolu via Getty Images)
Four-term Rep. Chris Pappas is expected to capture the Democratic Senate nomination in the state’s early September primary.
Meanwhile, former Sen. John E. Sununu, who has Trump’s endorsement, is favored to win the GOP primary over former Sen. Scott Brown, who served as Trump’s first-term ambassador to New Zealand.
Sununu is the older brother to former Gov. Chris Sununu.
The Fox News Power Rankings currently rate the race as lean Democrat.
Georgia
Republicans view first-term Sen. Jon Ossoff as the most vulnerable Democrat seeking re-election in 2026.

Ossoff, first elected in that 2020 race, built a massive war chest for his re-election in the southeastern battleground while the GOP faced a nasty three-way primary battle for its nomination in the crucial sunbelt battleground state.
In November’s midterms, Ossoff will face Republican Rep. Mike Collins, who was backed by Trump days ahead of the state’s June GOP primary runoff election.

Georgia narrowly voted for Trump in the 2024 election, but the Fox News Power Rankings currently rate the race as lean Democrat.
Long-shot expansion opportunities
Nebraska
Republican incumbent Sen. Pete Ricketts, a former governor, is seeking a full six-year term in the Senate representing the red-leaning state.
He’ll face off in the midterms with former union leader Dan Osborn, an independent candidate backed by Democratic-affiliated groups and donors, who is making his second straight run for the Senate.

Democratic nominee and former pharmacy technician Cindy Burbank dropped out of the race, in a move to boost Osborn.
The race is rated likely Republican in the Fox News Power Rankings.
Kansas
GOP Sen. Roger Marshall is seeking a second term. He’s being challenged by Democratic nominee Adam Hamilton, a pastor.
The Fox News Power Rankings recently moved the race from solid to likely Republican.
Minnesota
The retirement of Democratic Sen. Tina Smith is giving the GOP hopes they can flip the seat in the blue-leaning state.
Former NBC sports reporter turned conservative pundit and activist Michele Tafoya won the GOP nomination. She’ll face off with progressive Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan, who defeated more moderate Rep. Angie Craig in the Democratic primary.
The race is rated likely Democrat in the Fox News Power Rankings.
