Donate to take help Democrats take back the Senate in 2026!

Democrats need to flip a net of four seats in order to take back the Senate from Republicans in the 2026 elections. That may seem like a tall order, but recent polling suggests that it is entirely doable. Just take a look at the latest polling averages from these four Republican-held seats:


Alaska

Peltola (D): 48%

Sullivan (R): 46%


Maine (Democratic nominee is still undetermined)

Platner (D): 46.5%

Collins (R): 40.5%


Collins (R): 42.8%

Mills (D): 42.5%


North Carolina

Cooper (D): 48.5%

Watley (R): 42%


Ohio

Brown (D): 47.3%

Husted (R): 46.0%


Even beyond these four pickups, Democrats are also polling within the margin of error in Iowa and Texas, both of which are Republican-held seats. 


There might be even more Republican-held Senate seats that become competitive later on, but right now polling already shows Democrats leading or highly competitive in six, which is two more than we need to take back the Senate.


I've put together this ActBlue page to make it possible for you to donate to the Democratic nominees in all six of these Republican-held seats at the same time, and also to Bowers Kerbel Media.


To make sure I am being upfront with you, Bowers Kerbel Media is the organization that operates both the Bowers News Media news and activism email list as well as the Wolves and Sheep political analysis and practical life advice Substack. 


In some cases, the Democratic nominee in a state is already clear, while in others I have included a Democratic nominee fund as a placeholder. When it comes to nominee funds, any money that you donate will be put in escrow and transferred to the eventual Democratic nominee in that state once the primary is over.


The amounts that you give to each entity can be customized by clicked "customize amounts." No donation to Bowers Kerbel Media, or to any individual candidate or nominee fund, is required to make a donation on this page. 


Please, split a donation between Mary Peltola, Sherrod Brown, James Talarico, Roy Cooper, the Democratic nominee funds for Iowa and Maine, and Bowers Kerbel Media. Support the Democratic nominees in all six of our best Senate pickup opportunities in 2026 at the same time!
