Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell stated on Monday to an audience in Kentucky that he anticipates the outcome of the upcoming midterm elections in the Senate “to be very, very close either way” and that he believes democracy in the United States is on solid ground. McConnell was speaking about the upcoming elections for the Senate.
McConnell did not reiterate his statement from the previous week, which gained much attention, that it will be simpler for Republicans to gain control of the House of Representatives than the Senate.
During the occasion, though, he commented, “switching the Senate – what are the chances of that happening? It’s a toss-up between the two options.
We currently have a 50/50 split in the Senate, we have a 50/50 split in the nation, and I believe the outcome is going to be extremely close no matter which way it goes.
When the Kentucky Republican was then asked to expand, he responded by saying, “Well, Senate campaigns are statewide.” Simply said, the character of these areas is distinct from that of specific congressional districts.
There are twenty of my members present, but only fourteen of the Democrats, which works to the advantage of the Republicans.
There are a few of these states that are considered to be “purple” and might go either way. I have a feeling that the finish line will be decided by the slimmest of margins.”
McConnell did not repeat his statement from the previous week, which received a lot of attention, that it will be easier for Republicans to obtain control of the House of Representatives than it will be for them to gain control of the Senate.
However, when he was there, he made the following remarks: “Changing the make-up of the Senate — how likely is it that this will take place?
The outcomes of each choice are equally likely. We currently have a split of 50/50 in the Senate, and we also have a split of 50/50 in the nation as a whole. I believe the outcome, whichever way it goes, will be extremely close.
When the Republican from Kentucky was allowed to elaborate, he gave the following response: “Well, campaigns for the Senate are held statewide.”
To put it another way, the personalities of these regions are entirely different from those of certain congressional districts. Twenty of my party’s representatives are here, while only fourteen of the Democrats’ are, which clearly tilts the balance of power in favour of the Republicans.
A couple of these states are considered to be “purple” because the results of their elections are unpredictable and might go either way. I have a sneaking suspicion that the winner of the race will be determined by the narrowest of margins.”
