Stephen Farnsworth, Professor of Political Science and International Affairs and Director of the Center for Leadership and Media Studies at the University of Mary Washington, viewed this advance as more than just an indicator that Harris is more electable; he also suggested that the Democrats are likely to win a majority in the House of Representatives.

Farnsworth told “Al-Sharq” that the Senate, where the Democrats hold a slim majority, remains a very challenging environment for them to maintain control next year.
