From our interview with Democrat Adam Hamilton, who is running neck and neck and neck with Sen Roger Marshall in Kansas
Kansas Democratic Senate candidate Adam Hamilton told CBS News' @CHueyBurns that, if elected, he would not support Chuck Schumer (D-NY) as Senate majority or minority leader.
"I support term limits," he said. "I support age limits, and I just think there's a time where we need to have new and fresh leadership coming in and I think this is one of those times."
Hamilton is challenging incumbent Republican Sen. Roger Marshall, who is seeking another term.

The Senate Leadership Fund, the Senate GOP’s main super PAC, is putting $5M into South Carolina to shore up GOP Sen. Darline Graham’s campaign against Democrat Annie Andrews in a senate race that has become more competitive than many Republicans expected, sources tell @CBSNews. Republicans see the $5m as a safeguard in the southern state that Trump won by 18 in ‘24. First reported by @axios @MarcACaputo & @axiosalex

While the focus is on what Michigan's Senate race means for the party... one thing we heard from voters in the state yesterday is they still don't know what exactly the Democratic party's "brand" is.
Races in 2026 could help determine that, but for now, Dem voters are unsure.
