Background

In the previous state Senate election (2020), the Democrats increased their majority to 5 seats. Therefore, for Democrats to lose their absolute majority in the Senate in this election, Republicans and other parties would need to gain at least 3 more seats.

This will be the first election with the districts drawn based on the 2020 census.[3]

Incumbents not seeking re-election

Term-limited incumbents

One Democratic and four Republican incumbents are term-limited and prohibited from seeking a consecutive third term. Under the laws for the state Senate, for terms to be considered non-consecutive, there needs to be a gap of at least 4 years between them.[2]
