Election Results: Senate

Though some votes are still being counted, it is possible to draw some conclusions about the composition of the Senate for 2025.

In the 2024 Senate, 75 out of the 100 Senators were Strong Supporters or Supporters of Ukraine, according to the American Ukraine PAC Scorecard.

46 Dems and 15 Republicans were Strong Supporters. 13 Republicans and 1 Democrat were Supporters. All Supporters and Strong Supporters voted in favor of the Supplemental in April.

In 2025, there will be 12 new Senators. CA, DE, MD, NJ, MI had retiring Strong Supporter Dems being replaced with Dems. Sen Schiff (CA), Sen Rochester (DE), Sen Slotkin (MI) and Sen Kim (NJ) were Strong Supporter as Members of the House. Sen Gallego (AZ) and Sen Alsobrooks (MD) were state officials so does not have a voting record, but most likely will be a Strong Supporter.

UT was a Republican Senator and replaced with a Republican Senator. Senator Curtis was a Strong Supporter in the House. IN was a Negative and is being replaced by Sen Banks, who had a Negative voting record in the House.

Four Republicans won seats previously held by Democrats: WV, PA, OH and MT). None of the four: Sen Tester (MT), Sen Moreno (OH), Sen McCormick (PA) and Sen Justice (WV) were in the House so they do not have a voting record.

Ohio most likely will be negative for Ukraine. Outgoing Sen Brown was Chair of the Banking Committee which oversaw Russian sanctions and a Ukraine Champion. Incoming Sen Moreno has made negative statements concerning the American-Ukraine relationship.

The other incoming Senators all have a military background and campaign on restoring American military strength and support for our allies, though the American-Ukraine relationship was not a key issue.

Overall, the Senate elections are most likely neutral for Ukraine. Supporters of Ukraine were mainly replaced with Supporters with the exception of Ohio.
