How the Northeast Could Decide the Midterms
The Northeast is poised to play a crucial role in the upcoming midterm elections, despite its reputation as a liberal stronghold. Key races in Maine, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and New York could significantly impact the balance of power in Congress. Notable candidates include Sen. Susan Collins in Maine and Rep. Chris Pappas in New Hampshire, among others.
- ▪Sen. Susan Collins is seeking a sixth term in Maine, facing Democrat Graham Platner.
- ▪New Hampshire's Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is retiring, opening her seat for competition between Chris Pappas and other Republican candidates.
- ▪Pennsylvania will see several Republican incumbents defending toss-up districts in the House.
- ▪New York's Rep. Mike Lawler is in a toss-up district, with President Trump recently rallying in his support.
