Thirty-five senators, including twenty-three Republicans and twelve Democrats, were up for reelection in the US elections of 2020. In these senate races, ten senators were vulnerable on their seats as their opposition was giving them a tough time in the race. Did the vulnerable senators win their seats back, or did their rivals win to clinch the seats? Let’s have a look. Alabama Senate Race: Doug Jones (Incumbent) vs. Tommy Tuberville Result: Democrats lost the seat as Tuberville won the seat by a sweeping margin of 20.8%. Colorado Senate Race: Cory Gardner (Incumbent) vs. John Hickenlooper Result: Republicans lost the seat as Hickenlooper clinched victory by a margin of 9.9% margin. Arizona Senate Race:  Martha McSally (Incumbent) vs. Mark Kelly  Result: Republicans lost the seat as Mark Kelly won the seat by a margin of 3.4%. North Carolina Senate Race:  Thom Tillis (Incumbent) vs.  Call Cunningham  Result: Republicans won as Democrat's Call Cunningham concedes. Maine Senate Race:  Susan Collins (Incumbent) vs. Sara Gideon Results: Republicans managed to win this all-important seat by a margin of over 8.8%. Georgia Senate Race:  Georgia 1st Race: Kelly Loeffler (Incumbent) vs. Raphael Warnock Results: A run-off election is to be scheduled, as no candidate successfully won 50% of the votes. Georgia 2nd Race: David Perdue (Incumbent) vs. Jon Ossoff  Results: Run-off elections to be held as no candidate got 50% of the total votes cast. Iowa Senate Race: Joni Ernst (Incumbent) vs. Theresa Greenfield Result: Republicans successfully defended the seat, as Greenfield lost the seat by a margin of 6.6%. Montana Senate Race: Steve Daines (Incumbent) vs. Steve Bullock Result: Republicans managed to win the seat again, and Steve Bullock lost the seat by a margin of 9.2%. Massachusetts Senate Race: Edward Markey (Incumbent) vs. Kevin 0’Connor  Results: Democrats successfully won the seat again by a comfortable margin of more than 33%.   Who will win the Senate? With Biden more likely to be in the White House, currently, with a significant lead in Wisconsin and Michigan, the Senate's importance is more than ever today. Although more Republicans were up for the reelection of the Senate, they made a strong comeback, and currently, the Republicans are leading the Senate with fifty confirmed seats. If the Republicans manage to win one of the two Georgia seats that went into run-off elections, they will win the Senate majority. However, the situation will become interesting if somehow the Democrats manage to win both of these seats. Currently, the Democrats have forty-six confirmed seats with two independents who mostly support them. In this way, two more seats for Democrats will leave the senate undecided. Both of the seats of Georgia will be having run-off elections that will be taking place in January, and we have to wait until January to see who will control the Senate. In case both Republicans and Democrats take 50 seats each, the role of Vice President will become extremely important as she will cast a tie-breaker vote every time the Senate goes into a dead-end tunnel.

‘She sold out Iowans for her corporate donors. Enough is enough.’ — Senate candidate Theresa Greenfield held nothing back in her debate with Republican incumbent Joni Ernst (R-IA)

I just donated to both Theresa Greenfield and Jaime Harrison’s campaigns.

I don’t live in Iowa or South Carolina, so while I can’t vote for them I can still support them.

Many people mistakenly believe that Iowa is solidly Republican. This impression comes largely from sloppy media narratives and from really dumb stereotypes about the Midwest.

Iowa has more public libraries per capita than California or New York. The Iowa Writers' Workshop is the top graduate level program of its type in the US. The state ranks 6th in literacy -- behind only Minnesota, Colorado, and three New England states.

Three of Iowa’s four US House members are Democrats. And until the retirement of Tom Harkin in 2015, Iowa had been represented by one Democrat and one Republican in the US Senate for 30 years. Iowa has also gone Democratic in 6 of the last 10 presidential elections.

In short, Iowans tend to be thoughtful and discerning. It’s not a state which either side can take for granted. It may be a stretch to call Iowa a bellwether, but it is a reasonably good indicator of trends.

So when an incumbent GOP senator from Iowa is in trouble in an election year it’s a sign that things may not be going that well for Republicans around the country.

FiveThirtyEight considers the Iowa Senate race to be a toss-up. They currently give Democratic challenger Theresa Greenfield a 53% chance of defeating Sen. Joni Ernst. Ernst has been a knee-jerk supporter of Donald Trump and is planning to vote to confirm Amy Coney Barrett -- Trump’s extremist nominee to the US Supreme Court.

To turn the Senate blue, we need to help Theresa Greenfield get elected. She’s an excellent candidate and deserves everybody’s support.

Theresa Greenfield for Iowa

Greenfield has attempted to court rural voters by touting her background on a family farm in Minnesota, often calling herself a "scrappy farm kid" in the process. But the Democrat failed to gain the support of Iowa's three largest agricultural groups—the Iowa Farm Bureau, Iowa Corn Growers Association, and Iowa Cattlemen's Association have all endorsed Ernst in the race.

Kuntz told the Free Beacon that, if elected, Greenfield and her Democratic colleagues would over-regulate Iowa farms.

"The Democrats definitely do try to pull the farm vote by saying, ‘We support ethanol, we support this and that,'" Kuntz said. "The trouble is, they also support things like the death tax, they support things like more regulation—I would consider it overregulation."

While Kuntz did not legally object to Greenfield's use of the image—he told the Free Beacon that he took it at the request of a friend and knew it would be used as a stock photo—he said that he would have appreciated a "courtesy call" from the Greenfield campaign.

"When the flyer showed up, I said, ‘Rats, I wish that I would have at least been given a courtesy call to ask for permission.' Because we definitely do not support Theresa Greenfield," Kuntz said. "I'm not crying over spilt milk here. I realize I don't have a say in where the image goes. My say is when I go and vote."

The upper house of the United States Congress is known as the Senate, whose members are elected for a period of six years. Currently, the United States Senate comprises 53 Republican senators and 45 Democrats, along with two individuals who typically lean toward Democrats. Every two years, one-third of the senators go up for reelection.   Read Also: Senators up for Reelection in 2022    There are 35 senators up for reelection in 2020. Which senators are up for reelection in 2020, and who will be contesting whom in the November 3 polls? Let's have a look.   [caption id="attachment_3792" align="aligncenter" width="915"] Photo Source Credit to demcastusa.com[/caption]   Republican Senators up for reelection in 2020: Republicans have a majority in the Senate as of now, with 53 seats. However, 23 Republican senators are up for reelection in 2020 compared to 12 Democrats. So, it increases the worry of the Republicans, as nearly twice the number of their senators are running for reelection compared to the Democrats, leaving them vulnerable to lose their majority in Senate. Republican senators up for reelection in 2020 and their opponents who are ready to challenge them on November 3 are given below.   Incumbent Republican Senator Opposition Candidate State Latest Polls and Predictions Martha McSally Mark Kelly Arizona Kelly 47% McSally 42% Thom Tillis Cal Cunningham North Carolina Cunningham 50% Tillis 39% Susan Collins Sara Gideon Maine Gideon 44 % Collins 43% Steve Daines Steve Bullock Montana Daines 52% Bullock 43 % Joni Ernst Theresa Greenfield Iowa Greenfield 47% Ernst 43% Cory Gardner John Hickenlooper Colorado Hickenlooper 48% Garner 39% David Perdue Jon Ossoff Georgia Ossoff 44% Perdue 43% Kelly Loeffler Doug Collins (Republican) Raphael Warnock (Democratic) Matt Lieberman (Democratic) Georgia Warnock 41% Loeffler 24% Lindsey Graham Jamie Harrison South Carolina Harrison 48% Graham 47% James Risch Paulette Jordan Idaho Rasch 53% Jordan 28%% Pat Roberts (retiring) Roger Marshal (Republican nominee) Barbara Bollier Kansas Bollier 45% Marshall 42% Dan Sullivan  Al Gross (Independent) Alaska Sullivan 48% Gross 44% John Cornyn MJ Hegar Texas Cornyn 50% Hegar, 42%  Mitch McConnell Amy McGrath Kentucky McConnell 48% McGrath 41% Mike Rounds Daniel Ahlers South Dakota Polls not available Ben Sasse Chris Janicek Nebraska Polls not available Bill Cassidy Adrian Perkins (Democrat) David Drew Knight (Democrat) Louisiana Cassidy 52% Perkins 33% Cindy Hyde-Smith Mike Espy Mississippi  Hyde-Smith 41% Espy 40% James Inhofe Abby Broyles Oklahoma Inhofe 46% Broyles 30% Tom Cotton Ricky Dale Harrington Jr (Libertarian) Arkansas Cotton 49% Harrington 38% Shelley Moore Capito Paula Jean Swearengin West Virginia Polls not available.

Republicans most likely to win   Dont miss: Psychic Predictions of 2020 elections Democratic Senators up for reelection in 2020:   While there are 23 Republican Senators up for reelection in 2020, only 12 Democrat senators will seek reelection this year, which increases their chances of winning the majority in the Senate.   Incumbent Democratic Senator Opposition Candidates State Latest Polls and Predictions Doug Jones Tommy Tuberville Alabama Tuberville 54% Jones 42% Gary Peters John James Michigan Peters 47% James 42% Chris Coons Lauren Witzke Delaware C

The following are the ten senators who are most vulnerable in these elections.   Doug Jones Cory Gardner Martha McSally Thom Tillis Susan Collins Kelly Loeffler Joni Ernst Steve Daines Ed Markey David Perdue   Possibility of a hung Senate:   Amid the contest of all the senators up for reelection in 2020, will the Senate decision be made on November 3, or will we have to wait even further? Only the Senate rate of Georgia will decide this. Both seats of Georgia are up for reelection in 2020, and if one candidate fails to get 50% of the votes, runoff elections on January 5 will settle the dust. On the first seat, David Perdue will be the Republican candidate, who is up for reelection due to the expiry of his six-year term. However, on the other seat, Kelly Loeffler was appointed as the successor of the former senator Johnny Isakson, who retired during his term in 2019. Twenty-one candidates will contest this seat, which makes it highly unlikely that anyone will be able to get 50% of the votes. This will basically be a "jungle primary" contest in which all the 21 candidates will run for the seat, regardless of the political party. If this happens, the Senate can remain unsettled until January, which will increase the curiosity of everyone again. Senators up for reelection in 2020 will be facing the verdict of the Americans on November 3. Will Republicans successfully recapture the Senate, or will Democrats snatch the Senate away from Republicans? Only time will tell.

KEY POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE

— We are moving the Iowa Senate race from Toss-up to Leans Democratic. Iowa remains a Toss-up for president.

— Iowa may have replaced North Carolina as the race likeliest to decide Senate control, although North Carolina remains a very viable Democratic target despite Cal Cunningham’s (D) troubles.

— We have a couple of House rating changes, mostly out of an abundance of caution. We also update the House state of play.
