Who will win the Senate control in November?

Election day will be a real Tearjerker for all these Red Avatars.

I still guess 50-50, with Biden as tie-breaker.  The GOP can pick up SD, WV, MT, AR, & LA, but I think that Democrats have a good shot at holding the rest of their seats.

Barring a major blowout, I just don't see Democrats holding 4 competitive seats considering the atmosphere this year

I've always said that the Democrats will keep the Senate and I'm not changing that prediction now.

The Senate will stay Democratic, of course. The majority was supposed to go the last two times, but the Republicans screwed the pooch then and they still are.

It's already a given Dems will lose seats in MT, WV, and SD and are likely to lose AR and probably LA if Landrieu can't break 50% in the jungle primary. It's unlikely they find that 6th seat though, and that's assuming in the process the GOP holds KY, GA, KS and MS. They probably won't win NC since Tillis hasn't even been able to campaign all that much and is way too unpopular to pull it out and IA and CO they messed up big time by nominating flawed candidates.

Their main and one of their only paths to a majority at this point is them winning AK for the 6th seat and holding KS; both of which I don't see happening right now.

So R+5, with Biden breaking for Democrats.

I think I just puked a little

I'm really starting to think the Democrats are going through the Five Stages of Death and Grief with this whole thing.

They've been stuck at the Denial stage for pretty much the entire election season.

I don't think that any Republican-supporters on this website, should be accusing anyone of "denial."
The last presidential race showed gross denial by many on this site ... and I mean majorly-gross.

We are two months away until the general election. Most Democrat-supporters on this site, are being realistic in their predictions on each state-by-state Senate race. Few are "overly optimistic." But their is still time for movement of votes from one candidate to another (via poll info), and for members of this site to be more practical in their forecasting.

But if you recall, during the 2012 Presidential Election, many more Republican-supporters on this site were in "denial." Even one day before the election, Fox News had many on this site hypnotized that republicans were going to paint the majority of the map in their color. I was horrified to read many Atlas comments, thinking to myself "are these people sane ... from Earth?!!"
When all evidence was pointing to a near-certain predictable winner, Tea-baggers and ultra-conservative republicans insanely went down the path of too "cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs."

Except we learned from our mistakes in that regard. You're making the same claims and denials we did then.
