Democrats are more likely to regain control of the US Senate in 2022.

There are currently 47 Democratic held US Senate seats.
In 2020- Only 1 Democratic held US Senate seat is likely to go Republican barring Republicans nominating a controversial Candidate- AL(Jones-D). Democrats will definitely win at least 1 Republican held seat- CO(Gardner-R will face either Duran, Johnston, Romanoff, or Salazar). Democrats have at least a 50 percent chance of winning AZ(McSally-R will face either Gallego or Kelly.) and NC(Tillis-R faces either Foxx,Jackson,or Stein). Democrats will have a net gain of 2 seats in 2020, 49 Democratic held US Senate seats after 2020.
In 2022- There are no Democratic held US Senate seats up in 2022 that are in Ruby red States like in 2018(Donnelly-IN,McCaskill-MO,and Heitkamp-ND) or in 2020(Jones-AL). There are no vulnerable Democratic held US Senate seats in 2022. Democrats will pick up NC(OPEN Burr-R),PA(Toomey-R) and WI(OPEN Johnson-R).
