Sun Nov 9, 2025, 09:23 PM

Nov 9

Shaheen has announced her retirement,
King is an Independent whose term runs through 2030 at which time he will be 86 years old.
Baldwin and Rosen seats are also not due up for election until 2030.
Fetterman, Hassan, and Kelly seats are not due up for election until 2028.
Only Ossof, Durbin, and Peters are due up next year. Have at 'em if you think it will help us regain the majority in the Senate.
