Official 2022 Congressional Election Results Thread

[Horus]

Times calls it for Little Marco.

[DaleCooper]

Black voters seem to be voting similarly to how they did in the 2020 Presidential election based on results from Lauderhill, Florida (75.6% Black)

Biden 88.6% in 2020

Crist 87.7% in 2022
Demings 89.1% in 2022

If that's accurate then that ought to be a sign of relief for Dems. The Democrats cannot handle black voters drifting towards Republicans if Hispanics are going to shift towards the GOP. One is bad enough for them on its own, but simultaneously it would cripple their party.

Given how well DeSantis is doing, if the black vote doesn't change in Florida I wouldn't expect it to elsewhere.

What did FL-1 do to deserve Matt Gaetz vs Rebekah Jones?

[Kahane's Grave Is A Gender-Neutral Bathroom]

It's amazing how completely decoupled from any other state or national trends Florida seems to be these past few cycles.  It's like it's its own country.

We should formalize it.

Ayyyy another PA drop!

Delaware County reporting (or "Delco" as the locals call it) -- Philly suburb and former Republican stronghold until the Clinton years. 

Fetterman up 83-14 with 8% of the vote in (16,807-2,928).

[Ⓐnarchy in the ☭☭☭P!]

FL-9 margin down to 53-47 with over 30% still outstanding

[jamestroll]

Nova is almost immovable. Even without Trump apparently.

[Alben Barkley]

Called it for Welch in VT, to the shock of Trafalgar!

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

Is the Florida massacre the result of a bunch of Midwestern Republicans moving there?

And if so, what impact does their absence have on the Rust Belt elections?

It might make the MW more winnable going forward. But Ds can't get complacent or lazy in seeking to appeal to the region more broadly.

[Eraserhead]

Not a particularly huge slice of the vote tonight but Fetterman basically putting up Sanders numbers among the 18-29 crowd.

[Bojack Horseman]

Add this to the long list of reasons why I'll never live in Floribama.

[Rocky Rockefeller]

Called it for Welch in VT, to the shock of Trafalgar!

What was their poll?

That can be arranged.

NH still looking delicious. Pappas really holding it down in NH-01

[Lief 🗽]

Texas gov doesn’t look too bad either… Beto is going to lose but he’s not doing that much worse than Biden did in the early vote.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

Ayyyy another PA drop!

Good lord.
It's not the DelCo of Curt Weldon anymore!

[The Free North]

A republican is leading in Cook county with 700 votes in.

Take a screenshot, might not see that again for a while.

[Darthpi – Anti-Florida Activist]

Not a particularly huge slice of the vote tonight but Fetterman basically putting up Sanders numbers among the 18-29 crowd.

That feels right to me

[MT Treasurer]

NH is at this point just a Dem mirage. Still have faith.

NH at this point is about as much of a "bellwether" as Florida was in 2018.

[Not Me, Us]

Not a particularly huge slice of the vote tonight but Fetterman basically putting up Sanders numbers among the 18-29 crowd.

Even my friends who voted Trump voted for Fetterman, for what it's worth. It's only an anecdotal sample size of three though.

[Kamala's side hoe]

The blessed needle still has the Senate in toss-up range, but tilting slightly D.

I think that'll change once we get to Nevada and Arizona. I expect Republicans to do better there.

Somewhat agree, with the caveat that recent-wave Mexicans and Central Americans aren’t interchangeable with Caribbean Latinos. We just have to wait and see.

[Alben Barkley]

Called it for Welch in VT, to the shock of Trafalgar!

What was their poll?

Welch only up single digits, forget the exact number.

Warnock and Fetterman both above 70 with Zoomers has to be setting off alarm bells for the GOP. The only Republican saving grace may be their low turnout.

In addition to all the things pushing the Cubans to the right, I think some of it might just be generational turnover. What was a big Greatest+Silent Generation population in Florida is now a Boomer population, and specifically one that has watched Florida over the last couple decades and thought "yes, gimme some of that."

[Penn_Quaker_Girl]

Big drop from Pittsburgh country:

Allegheny Co. -- With 27% in, Fetterman leads 84-15 (130,239 - 22,578)
