Republicans had maintained control of the state senate from the 2012 election until the 2022 midterms, after which a coalition government between 8 of the 11 Republicans and all 9 Democrats was formed.[2] The 3 remaining Republicans did not join the coalition; none of their seats are up for election. Some majority-coalition Republicans face conservative opponents who have vowed not to join the caucus, such as Jesse Bjorkman and Kelly Merrick who face challenges from State Representatives Ben Carpenter and Ken McCarty respectively.[3]

After the primary, McCarty withdrew from the race and endorsed Goecker. This would normally mean that Jackson, the fifth place finisher, would move up, but she has also endorsed Goecker.[8]
