Merged 2026 Mid-Term election outcomes: US Congress

[PitPat]

CNN projects Talarico the winner in Texas, and Sherrod Brown the winner in Ohio.

I thought Ohio was going to be a close one. At this pace Peltola might not even matter as the deciding factor for Senate control.

And CNN projects Gina Hinojosa the winner in the Governor's race in Texas.

Every seat is precious.

Right now the Democratic candidate is ahead in all 8 House Districts in Colorado. A 4 seat pickup if this holds up.

He never won in a landslide in the first place, why would he win in one now?

He's confused because one time he did win a vote by a landslide, on a poll asking people who they'd most like to be buried in a landslide. Trump won that by an enormous margin.

The second place winner was also Trump, except it was for a volcanic eruption rather than a landslide.

It's officially a "blue tsunami" in the House...
Just one more seat needed in the Senate

 

[Trebuchet]

Watching fake news MSNow for a few minutes. Not to surprised by some of the outcomes, but by the margins. Wow. Trump will be freaking out

 

[PitPat]

Sand won Iowa gov handily, so it's a pretty good sign that the Senate is going to go with Turek. Another previous GOP stronghold.

CNN projects Democrat Adam Hamilton the winner of the Senate seat in Kansas. This gives Democrats 50 seats, plus the two independents who caucus with them.

KS, SC and Iowa looking to turn blue. There's not a stronger message than this about how the whole country is feeling.

 

[Solitaire]

Talarico is likely to win. With all his extra genders, wil he get 6 votes in the senate?

According to Allan Lichtman the magic eight ball says, "Outlook Good."

Earily Accurate Election Guru Gives Final Midterm Prediction

The Senate is a slightly tougher prospect, although he still gives Democrats a 67% chance of seizing control of that. His most likely result is a 51-49 Democratic majority, reversing the Republicans’ current 53-47 advantage over the Democratic caucus.

And off we go...

I wasn’t on the Ballot and if I was, we would have won IN A LANDSLIDE! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

Wasn't he saying the opposite on TV the other day? Whatever. This was totally as expected. Nothing is ever Trump's fault.

The other day never happened. That was FAKE NEWS!

Every seat is precious.

Especially if Tafoya pulls one back in Minnesota. Dems also have to overcome Fetterman

 

[stanfr]

NBC has officially called the Senate with 51 seats now blue.
The impeachment trial should be fun! It will need its own thread.

 

[Norman Alexander]

3:30pm here in Sydney, Grauniad calls it 50 seats to Dems in the Senate.

Fetterman says he will still caucus with the Dems which is really the most important. He's still a dip ◊◊◊◊ though.

Ben McAdams (Democrat) headed to Congress for Utah. I know Ben. He's a good man, and eager to bring about change.
