Comment: On a 6-year cycle this certainly trumps  only 2.0 years out, in that it would be significant OR to assume it will not take place. The problem is the lack of sources, but that is very easily remedied, without my needing to provide the links to prove it, since I've said it before on numerous similar AFDs

Comment: WP:TOOSOON . Some events are notable two years in advance, others are not. Senate races per state would fall under the latter. There's nothing notable to be said at the moment.--Special:Contributions/70.80.234.196|70.80.234.196

Comment: There's no doubt that this event ''will'' happen.  However, using that reasoning, we could create United States Senate election in Virginia, 2072.  Articles that are created way too soon are a pet peeve of mine.  There needs to be coverage of this election before an article can exist.  There's no way anyone can accurately surmise who might even run in this election with any certainty at this point. Until candidates officially announce they are running, then adding their names to this article as candidates is pure  and .  No matter how likely you think it is that the incumbent is going to run, there is no guarantee
