It is likely that the Republicans will take the Senate in the 2024 elections. They might also take control of the House and Presidency, having a legislative trifecta. However, under current Senate rules they would be unable to pass most laws, since Democrats could filibuster.

Resolves N/A if Republicans do not have control of the Senate (either a 51/49 split or a 50/50 split with a Republican VP). If it is partially abolished, I will either use my best judgement or resolve to a poll.

Chance of taking the Senate:

Same market for taking the trifecta:
