Republicans Appear Poised to Take Control of Senate, New Poll Shows
Briefly

Control of the Senate appears likely to flip from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party this fall, as Senator Jon Tester trails his Republican challenger Tim Sheehy in Montana.
Democrats, holding a 51-seat Senate majority, cannot afford to lose additional seats; their hope rests on securing a 50-50 split, relying on tiebreaker votes.
Tim Sheehy leads Jon Tester 52 percent to 44 percent, showcasing strong Republican support in a conservative state where Trump holds a significant advantage.
At least seven other Democratic-held Senate seats are also competitive this fall in key battlegrounds, indicating a challenging landscape for the Democrats.
