The Cook Political Report shifted four Senate races, favoring Democrats but still predicting a GOP majority. Two races moved to lean Democrat: North Carolina and Georgia. Ohio’s race shifted from lean Republican to toss-up. Nebraska’s race became lean Republican. Sherrod Brown’s close polling in Ohio was noted. In Georgia, despite strong Democratic presence, Ossoff’s seat remains a toss-up. The GOP needs to lose four seats to lose control, with Maine and Texas being key.
