A New York Times analysis reports that Democrats may have found an effective strategy for flipping Republican-held Senate seats in red states, based on polling conducted with Siena College ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. The piece suggests the party's approach is resonating in states that typically favor Republicans, fueling debate about whether the Senate map is more competitive than assumed.
