Coloring of incumbent independents
I noticed that a brighter red and blue are used for the independents in the Republican and Democratic parties, while a pastel red and blue are used for the retiring Republicans and Democrats. However, a pastel yellow is used for the incumbent independents eligible for re-election, which initially confused me to believe that the Alaskan independent was retiring until I double-checked the key.

I request that a different yellow, either brighter, darker, golder, or more solid, replaces the pastel yellow similar to the file "File:US Senate election 2018 (as of 2018 April 01).png" for incumbents, and the current pastel color is used for those retiring similar to the pastels used for the retiring (R) and (D) politicians. This small change would likely take only a short time to perform, but it would help the readers by having a more consistent use of lighter and darker colours.
