How this race is decided

Top-two primary

All candidates run in one primary regardless of party and the two with the most votes advance, so two candidates of the same party can meet in November. The forecast then marks the seat as safe for that party.

Staggered Senate

Senators serve four-year terms; about half the seats are on the ballot each election.
