Election reporting service Decision Desk said Friday that Republicans are now favored to win the U.S. Senate during the 2022 midterm elections next month, noting that it’s the first time the company has made such a prediction.

“Republicans are favored to win control of the U.S. Senate for the first time since we released our 2022 Elections Forecast,” said the company, adding that its modeling predicts that Republicans have a 50.4 percent chance of taking back the upper chamber. Further, Republicans are predicted to take 51 seats to Democrats’ 49, according to the website.
