Official 2022 Congressional Election Results Thread

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.

I really hope we can pull off an upset in that AG race

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.

They aren't. At all. They weren't in 2020 and they won't be now. From what I saw exit polls looked pretty good for us in AZ.

They also have NH and well... the entire country except for FL.

It would seem to me that Kemp/Warnock voters (i.e., Buckhead Bettys) would be more apt to vote early.  I doubt the margin separating Kemp/Walker holds up as more ED comes in.  

[Alben Barkley]

Imagine actually getting out of bed, driving to the polls today, and casting your vote for... Herschel Walker.

Even more than with Trump, I just don't understand it.

[Hindsight was 2020]

For all the drama the early impression seems to be that the conventional wisdom over the summer that the Republicans will win the House but not by any impressive margin and the Democrats either break even or add in the Senate is the likely scenario

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?

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."

If you count early retirees (Long Island cops and firefighters for instance), we are starting to get an influx of Gen Xers too.

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

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.

Of course, with the caveat that this could be said about the youth vote going back to about George McGovern.

Won't be enough to avoid a runoff if the Libertarian keeps pulling 2%.

[Convicted Felon Donald Trump]

needle says georgia is +1.3 R

This is why I’m feeling pessimistic.

[Crumpets]

needle says georgia is +1.3 R

And the Libertarian candidate is currently at 1.6%. So that'd probably be runoff territory.

DeSantis leading by 3 points in Palm Beach! This is a true landslide. Closing in on a 17% lead too.

And you'd be furiously excited over good Florida areas.  You know how this works bud don't call the kettle black.

[LostFellow]

NYT projection is showing Rubio (+17) outperforming Young (+15) based off the votes so far... I don't think anyone expected that! Young number seems too low, but just shows how (non-atlas) red Florida is this election.

[Aurelius]

Ralston has been having a normal one on Twitter all afternoon. Could this be the election that breaks his reputation?

[Lief 🗽]

Two towns fully reporting in Maine, both very rural, and the D margin is like 10 points better than Biden’s…

[Fmr. Gov. NickG]

Interesting that Blue avatars keep posting about Florida and ignoring the rest of the country.

You seem perfectly normal and nice.

Those Republicans leaving bluer states have to settle somewhere.

Ryan leading 57/43

They have gotten very quiet.

Big drop from Pittsburgh country:

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

They should install road signs on the Allegheny county border, saying "Welcome to the People's Republic of Jagoff".
