This is what the 2024 map looks like. Politico calls it brutal.

Senate Dems face brutal 2024 map with at least eight undecided incumbents

Of the 33 Senate seats up for election next term, 23 are held by Democrats. That makes for a tough cycle — and it gets even harder if incumbents choose not to run.

No, it’s the last ‘battle’ of the 2022 Senate ‘cycle’.

Why do you think that the 2022 cycle heavily favored the Dems? Polling and historical trends indicated that Republicans were heavily favored.

No. This year's races were based on 2022 issues IMHO. Democratic voters were largely focused on the overturning of Roe and Trump ( including 1/6).

So the biggie as of right now will be if Trump runs in 2024. If Trump sits it out or backs the Republican nominee versus Biden 2024 could be a hard one for democrats.
