Next year’s Senate elections in Georgia and Nevada are shaping up to be close, with President Biden’s falling popularity raising GOP hopes of unseating Democratic incumbents, according to recent polling by the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
“As you know, Republicans only need to win one net seat to gain a majority and it’s becoming increasingly clear that we have opportunities across the country to win,” Jackie Schutz Zeckman, the NRSC’s executive director, wrote in the two-page memo.
The Georgia poll, which was conducted early this month, reported a margin of sampling error of 3.4 percentage points. The Nevada survey, which was conducted last month, reported a 4.1-point margin of error. Both states are among a crop of super-competitive races that will determine which party controls the Senate after the midterms. Biden won Georgia and Nevada by slim margins last year, but the NRSC’s polling showed that majorities of voters in both states — 55 percent in Georgia and 56 percent in Nevada — disapprove of his performance as president.
“Republican candidates are well-positioned to take advantage of the current political environment and the NRSC, bolstered by our record-breaking fundraising, will do whatever is needed to support our candidates across the country and define the Democrats early,” Zeckman wrote. Walker and Laxalt are widely favored to win their GOP primaries. Former President Donald Trump has endorsed both.
