Two-way race: turnout matters Draft: awaiting review

Nancy Gregory D

Nancy Gregory is the only non-Republican on the ballot, so this is a two-way race and turnout is what matters. Open seat: Sen. Codi Galloway (R) is not on the ballot. The seat flipped from D+1.8 in 2022 to R+3.7 in 2024, so turnout and avoiding undervotes decide it. District lines were the same in 2022 and 2024 (the post-2020-census map), so both results compare directly.
