About this race
By: DDHQ Automation
In the upcoming Senate election in Wisconsin on November 5, 2024, incumbent Democrat Tammy Baldwin is facing off against Republican nominee Eric Hovde. Baldwin, aged 62, a graduate of Smith College, has been serving as a Senator since she was first elected in 2012\. Hovde, aged 55, holds a degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and comes from a background in finance.
Currently, the United States Senate is composed of 51 Democrats and 49 Republicans. In Wisconsin, the demographic breakdown shows that Non-Hispanic Whites make up 82% of the population, followed by Hispanics at 8%, Blacks at 6%, Asians at 3%, and Native Americans at 1%.
Baldwin comfortably won the last Senate race in 2018 with a margin of 10.8%. The state of Wisconsin has shown a history of closely contested presidential elections, however, with Joe Biden winning by 0.6% in 2020 and Donald Trump by 0.8% in 2016\. While Baldwin has a track record of success, Wisconsin is a competitive state, and this race will be vital in determining the balance of power in the next Senate.
