2024, There are 3 red state Democratic US Senate seats up for re-election that year.
WV(Manchin-D),MT(Tester-D), and OH(Brown-D). Democrats lose WV and MT but narrowly hold onto OH.
There are no Republican held US Senate seats up for re-election in 2024 that the Democrats will win. Democrats need a really strong candidate in FL against Scott-R and TX against Cruz-R.
2026, Democrats are going to hold onto GA(Ossoff-D) and MI(Peters-D) and pick up NC(Tillis-) with Roy Cooper-D as the Democratic nominee.

Way too early to predict what the State of the Union will be in 2026, much less Senate seats.
