Official 2022 Congressional Election Results Thread

[Spectator]

Jeez Republicans are only leading in 221 House seats (according to CNN), late ballots could easily wipe that out.

Oh man, don't give me hope... I now want this to happen.

Except for 2002, Dark Brandon already has the best first term midterm performance since when? 1978? 1962?

1962, and before that 1934 (!)

Considering the state of his approvals, probably the best midterm ever.

According to CNN, Milwaukee is just 82% couunted? Can Barnes make his small deficit up with that? RoJo losing would be so glorious.

According to HuffingtonPost, BoJo is ahead by just 26,000 votes. It seems 75% of the remaining votes come from Milwaukee and Dane Counties - 100,000 votes between them.

I think you might have mixed Ron Johnson up with another terrible conservative.

Thanks for the catch!

Summary: outlook fairly good for Cortez Masto (the 2-1 margin from 100K gives her 10K margin win, fairly comfortable) but Sisolak will need something much bigger than expectation to survive.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

This was not the Majority in the H the Rs we're expecting a 2 seat majority Sabato said 237 seats

[Spectator]

Dunno if 110,000 margin is enough for Kelly to hold on.

AP-

93% Reporting:

Frisch (Dem) 147,263 (50.9%)
Bobo (GQP) 142,328 (49.1%)

The crazy son of a gun might do it

Ironically, there is a community named "Rifle" within the borders of this district. It was named for Rifle Creek, which was named after an incident involving a rifle.

I believe Boebert is from Rifle and gained notoriety through her gun themed restaurant there.

Ironic that a gun rights activist from Rifle uses her gun themed restaurent there to get elected to Congress.

That's not ironic.

Ironic would be, for instance, if Boebert evicted a pro-gun resident in order to build the restaurant there and then lost reelection by a single vote.

I think it would be ironic if everyone involved was made of iron.

CCM probably survive depending on the Clark mail number, but it will be close. I think Sisolak is finished though. Arizona is narrowing quickly.

So much for Ryan Prez ambition now I know it's Newsom in 28

It’d be ironic if AZ and NV broke for the GOP. Then it’d be like a reverse 2020, where Dems were demoralized until Perdue was knocked slightly under 50% and then salvaged the whole night by winning the Senate in January.

The complete inverse would be if the GOP won AZ and then won the GA runoff. I don’t think Walker stands much of a chance on his own though.

I think I can tentatively concur with this assessment.

True.
I'm using the word pretty loosely here.

You're using it the way most people use it, tbh. The example I provided was technically correct - which is the best kind of correct - but also pedantic

Hate to be a pedant, but pedantry begets pedantry.

You're not using irony correctly either. Irony is just when the literal meaning runs counter to the intended meaning. You would be using irony if you were to go to the Rifle Restaurant and say it was "really really good". If you're running fast and loose as a descriptivist you could say situational irony is a thing, but I don't think your example necessarily fits that either.

Anyway, that's not important. What's important is that Boebert might get BTFOd in a safe seat tonight. Hail Dark Brandon

Aaron Ford is narrowly leading in Carson City, which is usually 15-20 points to the right of Washoe County…but he’s only up 5% in Washoe County. I think that is a clear sign that Washoe’s remaining ballots should be heavily blue.

How much of Mesa County is in?

85%, but Pueblo (much more liberal) is at 71%.

That is bad, bad news for Boebert. Wow.

Not really. Frisch's (and other Colorado democrats for that matter) margin in heavily Hispanic and working class Pueblo seems a little high, particularly for a wealthy white businessman from Aspen.  I would expect that margin to decrease a little as the remaining vote is counted, and with that, net votes for Boebert.

Lake and Hamadeh are in good shape. Do Finchem and Masters make it?

Shock results for the midterm elections. Looks like maybe a wash in the Senate and maybe R+5 in the House. That means the Democrats should be favored to retake the House in 2024 even if Donald Trump (likely) gets re-elected and the Senate in 2026.

Blake Masters winning, but CCM winning will be an odd result. That means it will come down to Georgia again unless there is a lot of Democratic vote left in Atlanta to count.

Christy Smith is 15 points behind Garcia (!!!) Literally Martha Coakley of the West.

As of tonight, Trump’s chances of even being the GOP nominee, let alone winning the general election, are going down the drain.

They didn't ditch him after 2020, so I don't see why they'd do so now.
