US Poll: Democrats Lead in Key Senate Battleground States

A new poll by The New York Times indicates an advantage for Democrats across key battleground states ahead of the US Senate midterm elections, The Jerusalem Post and Croatian news outlet Index.hr reported. According to the findings, Democrats could potentially flip Texas and elect a Democratic senator there for the first time in nearly 40 years.

According to Index.hr, the poll points to potential Republican losses even in two of the party's traditional strongholds. In order to secure a majority in the Senate, Democrats must retain all the seats they currently hold while winning at least four seats currently held by the Republican Party. Further details have not yet been released.
