Sen. Rick Scott declined to say whether he would run for majority leader if Republicans gain control of the Senate in the midterm elections. “I’m not focused on anything except getting a majority Tuesday night,” he said.

published in the conservative news site Washington Examiner in September. He wrote that “many of the very people responsible for losing the Senate last cycle are now trying to stop us from winning the majority this time by trash-talking our Republican candidates.

Republicans can “absolutely” get to at least 52 Senate seats, Scott said. “I think we have a really good shot in Arizona, I think we have a shot — a real good shot in New Hampshire.” Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J, said on ABC News'"This Week" that he believes Democrats have a “very strong pathway” to maintaining control of the upper chamber because voters realize that Democrats are"trying to protect fundamental freedoms."

Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., said on CNN's"State of the Union" that Democrats are either ahead in key races"or we are in striking distance.”
