Get ready for Democrats to plot their power grabs for 2028

The article argues that Democrats’ reported gains in the 2026 midterm elections could give the party a stronger position ahead of the 2028 presidential race. It says Democrats may use the next two years to prepare proposals to expand their political power if they regain the White House.

The article says Democrats have won 54 Senate seats, with possible additional wins in Alaska and Mississippi, and claims the 2028 Senate map favours them. It points to gains in Texas, Kansas, Iowa and Ohio, as well as a possible Mississippi win, as evidence of a broader shift in traditionally Republican states. It does not detail the proposed changes it describes as “power grabs”.
