2018 Senate Elections under a Hillary Clinton Presidency

[President Biden Democrat]

What would the 2018 Senate Elections look like if Hillary Clinton beat Donald Trump in 2016 and became President. Provide maps, explanations, etc.

[Left Wing]

All of the Republicans who lost by less than ten win.
Before election: 50-50 (D)
After Election: 58-42 (R)

[Roll Roons]

All of the Republicans who lost by less than ten win.
Before election: 50-50 (D)
After Election: 58-42 (R)

I'd add at least one of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Jersey. Comstock would have also likely won Kaine's Senate seat in the special.

It is possible Corey Stewart does even better in the primary because very conservative voters would be emboldened by Hillary.

[TiltsAreUnderrated]

It would depend on if her popularity rebounded once she got into office (as it had done with a limited number of previous roles), but I'd take the 2018 map (for Democrats) minus AZ, MI, MT, NV and OH. I think Franken would be pressured to stay in the Senate by a president HRC not wanting to expand the Republican map.

If Comstock or another Republican had previously won the special election, T-Mac would have probably been deployed and would win.

Final numbers: 54 R - 46 D (Doug Jones never wins in this timeline)

All of the Republicans who lost by less than ten win.
Before election: 50-50 (D)
After Election: 58-42 (R)

I think this is really close to what would happen. I think Michigan would stay with the Democrats. Maybe Republicans are able to pick either NJ or WI.

[Left Wing]

Virginia (Special): Dave Brat 53%, Justin Fairfax 47% (R Gain)

McAuliffe made it clear he would appoint Bobby Scott

I never said Scott would win the primary.

I never said Scott would win the primary.

At that point, Fairfax was just a random attorney. He wouldn't have beaten an appointed Senator and former longtime Congressman in the primary.

Just to comment on people putting NJ as a Republican pickup:

If Clinton was President and the Democrats looked very vulnerable in the midterms I think Menendez would have been primaryied by someone like Rush Holt or even Don Norcross. The Democratic party of NJ wouldn't have pissed that seat away.

The only reason Menendez is still there is because the Dems assumed (correctly) that a Trump midterm would mean Menendez would do at least the bare minimum to win.

I don't really believe that Clinton would have been as unpopular as people think. Clinton would have presided over a great economy and I believe that she would have been much more popular than Trump due to the fact that she wouldn't squander that advantage by constantly undermining herself with incendiary comments and actions.

Well certainly Hillary Clinton in her career has had this thing that she was always more popular while in office than she was while running for an office.
