There is some concern that SENATE REPUBLICANS FACE a conundrum in their fight to retake the majority as Biden’s post-debate struggles are not bleeding into battleground races.
Democratic incumbents still are far outpacing the president in their push to hold onto the upper chamber, write The Hill’s Alexander Bolton and Al Weaver.
A pair of polls from The New York Times/Siena College showed a set of Democrats — including Sens. Bob Casey (Pa.) and Tim Kaine (Va.) — outperforming Biden by 14 and 15 percentage points in the two states.
This is creating a major problem for Senate Republicans as the surveys might suggest voters have more of a problem with the president than Democrats more widely, dulling an arrow in their quiver with less than four months until November.
