Elizabeth Warren, a Democrat from Massachusetts, has been reelected for a third term in the U.S. Senate.

Warren faced off against Republican John Deaton, a Marine Corps veteran and attorney, who presented himself as a centrist throughout the race. However, in the predominantly Democratic state of Massachusetts, Warren’s progressive stance garnered the support of the electorate.

At age 75, Warren was first elected to the Senate in 2012 and subsequently reelected in 2018. She briefly sought the presidency in 2020 before endorsing President Joe Biden. Known for her strong opposition to former President Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance, her political stance has remained clear.

Warren has a background as an attorney, consumer advocate, and author, having written nearly twelve books focused mainly on financial management and issues affecting the middle class.

The Democrats currently hold a functional majority with 51 seats in the Senate, comprised of 47 Democrats and four Independents who usually align with them. There is an ongoing effort by Democrats to maintain this majority in the current election cycle.
