Alaska Senate SHOCKER: New Forecast Gives Democrats the Edge

GOP Gets BAD NEWS as Alaska Moves to Lean Democrat. In this video, we break down the Alaska Senate forecast discussed by Sabato’s Crystal Ball, the polling between Mary Peltola and Dan Sullivan, and why this race could be critical to Democrats’ path to Senate control in the 2026 midterm elections.

We examine the competing Alaska polls, the polling average, and how ranked-choice voting could shape the outcome. With some surveys favoring Peltola and others showing Sullivan ahead, Alaska remains a competitive race—even with a forecast shift toward Democrats.

We also explore the broader 2026 Senate map, including North Carolina, Ohio, Texas, Maine, and Iowa. If Democrats defend Georgia, Michigan, and New Hampshire, how could pickups in Alaska and North Carolina bring them closer to a 51-seat majority? We walk through that scenario and the additional races they would need to win.

Can Mary Peltola flip Alaska, or will Dan Sullivan hold the seat? Share your thoughts in the comments and let us know where you’re watching from!
