Odaily: Election forecasting firm Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ) predicts that Democrat Adam Hamilton has successfully flipped a U.S. Senate seat in Kansas. He capitalized on voter discontent with U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff policies and public anger over rising fuel prices caused by the Iran war, becoming the first Democrat elected to the U.S. Senate from this Great Plains state since 1932. According to preliminary vote counts, with 84% of ballots tallied, Hamilton leads Republican Senator Roger Marshall by 53% to 44%.
DDHQ has declared Hamilton the winner, but other television networks have not yet projected a victor. According to projections from DDHQ and multiple television networks, Democrats have now flipped five Senate seats, in North Carolina, Ohio, Texas, Kansas, and South Carolina. Democrats originally needed a net gain of just four seats to take control of the Senate, provided the party did not lose any existing seats in other states. (Jinshi)
