Official 2022 Congressional Election Results Thread

I was not expecting a red wave. Dems are really holding there own. Better night than I expected. I'm excited.

No matter what exactly happens as the final races finish counting, President Biden should declare victory (and it clearly is one relative to expectations at least, by far) and deliver some audacious "I welcome their hatred!" or "Give 'em hell, Harry!" style speech tomorrow. Between giving Democrats' their best midterm performance in the White House since AT LEAST Bill Clinton's second term, and generally delivering on a lot of promises with very little to work with, this man has EARNED FDR/Truman comparisons at this point.

That whole article where a Republican pollster said "no private survey had Warnock up" really aged well

nevada isn't a done deal yet guys

No but the Needle moved more toward CCM in the latest update.

ccm is underperforming biden by 1 with election day votes yet to be counted in clark those are heavily R

GA-Sen can probably be called Runoff.

I’d actually bet on late votes from urban GA putting Warnock above 50.

You sure? He needs to net like 50,000 votes, maybe more if there are a lot of Walker votes still out there.

If we have a 50-50 Senate and a 218-217 R house… 😂😂

Possible that Masto/Lombardo is a realistic result. CCM is +5.7, while Sisolak only +3.4.

I have personally and officially petitioned the Greek government to give honorary citizenship to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for its valorous actions tonight:

I would like to say F Andrew Cuomo and his judicial picks.

NY judges and Ohio republicans are 100% the reason repubs will take the House. Don't mean to toot my own horn, but I 100% called this months ago when it happened. Republicans can viciously gerrymander as much as they want, but democrats aren't allowed to do it in an overwhelmingly democratic state. Absolute bulls***.

There was an *Atlas* red wave.

[Stockdale for Veep]

That 'you get 5-10 minutes to change your vote' rule could make for an interesting Speaker Election roll call.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

President Joe Biden has overseen arguably the most impressive incumbent party midterm performance in American history. It's an incredible achievement.

Certainly mutatis mutandis, i.e. adjusting for factors like the economy being bad and Biden himself being fairly unpopular, yeah. It's really something. He really is underestimated to one's peril.

It looks like Democrats have an equal chance of gaining as losing the Senate.

I wouldn't say that. ~The Needle~ and at least one other tracker have them at around 2/3 chances of retaining it, and I'd say that's true since they only need to keep the lead in three of the four remaining races rather than gain it (and even then they can afford to lose one of them).

Bernie Sanders will no longer be asking Brian Fitzpatrick to switch parties in that case.

Both 2000 and 2020 already had crazy close results.

OMG, if we really get screwed because Marc Molinaro won NY-19 (i assume Maloney still pulls it out)

If historical voting patterns hold then I think CCM's lead from the Clark and Washoe early vote is just barely not enough to survive election day. But it really depends on how many ballots were only just dropped off or put in the mail today. Those won't be counted tonight.

[It’s so Joever]

Again it is possible CA/NV may be a lot worse due to gas prices, lets wait and see.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

What is the likelihood of Sean Patrick Maloney losing?

In the coming days/weeks, this forum needs to have a serious come to Jesus conversation about all those bogus republican polls purely designed to move the average on RCP.....

...come to think of it, we need to have the same conversation about RCP in general.

Kildee and Slotkin seems set to hold onto their seats. Overall, a pretty fantastic night for MI Dems. I don't think Marlinga will make it though, but it'll be close.
