The 10 Senate seats most likely to flip in 2024
  + stars: | 2023-04-30 | by ( Simone Pathe | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +19 min
The GOP needs a net gain of one or two seats to flip the chamber, depending on which party wins the White House in 2024, and it’s Democrats who are defending the tougher seats. Jim Justice announcing his Senate bid in West Virginia – the seat most likely to flip party control in 2024. In a presidential year, the national environment is likely to loom large, especially with battleground states hosting key Senate races. Two businessmen with the ability to tap into or raise significant resources could be in the mix – Eric Hovde, who lost the GOP Senate nomination in 2012, and Scott Mayer.

Former President Donald Trump is holding his 2024 campaign kick-off event Saturday in Waco, Texas. Cult leader David Koresh fought federal agents there in 1993 in a standoff where nearly 100 died. Trump is bracing for indictment any day now and has urged supporters to protest if he's arrested. Trump beat President Joe Biden there by 23 points the last time around, collecting nearly two-thirds of the total votes. Trump campaign aides did not immediately respond to requests for comment about the timing or planning surrounding the upcoming Waco trip.
During his short campaign, Trump has dominated headlines by dining with the rapper Ye, who has gone on antisemitic tirades in recent weeks, and the white nationalist Nick Fuentes.

They just think he’s the future, but Trump is the present.”Still, Trump hasn’t offered much in the way of a new vision for the country. Then in early 2023, I expect the Trump campaign to start rolling out an effort to lock down the early primary states,” the adviser said. “If Trump can put together early primary support, if he can raise a bunch of money, he’ll be hard to beat.
