NO TO SCHUMER
Don't believe anything you read about the inevitability of Chuck Schumer becoming Majority Leader.
You may have seen this before, but here is an analysis of Schumer support from back in August of a potential whip count for the 2027 Senate assuming the Dems won a bunch of seats. And they won even more! [The detail is in the subsequent reply.]
Chuck Schumer does not have the votes to become Majority leader.

Will update this analysis when the dust settles.
@mastodonmigration agreed. Question: where did this list come from? I'd like to reference it, and I'd like to follow it in case there is an updated analysis. We need an updated analysis ASAP so we can start strategizing for the Senate Leader election within the Democrats.
