Cook nudges three Senate races toward Democrats

The Cook Political Report recently reclassified Senate races in Georgia, Kansas, and South Carolina, nudging them toward Democrats. Georgia moved to Likely Democrat, while Kansas and South Carolina shifted to Lean Republican and Likely Republican, respectively. Democrats need four net seats to win the Senate. Despite this momentum, Republicans are heavily outspending Democrats on advertising in key races, potentially forcing the GOP to allocate more resources to these tightening contests beyond the primary battlegrounds.
