A CNN commentary argues the 2026 Democratic landslide is historic: Democrats won US Senate seats in Kansas, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Texas, states they had not carried since 1932, 1982, and 1998 in the case of the first three. A commentator says Scott Cologne leads in Mississippi, James Talerico won Texas for the first time since 1988, and Democrats are likely to flip the House, their biggest gains since 1948, joking that the GOP ended up a giant turkey.
