CNN and others believe Republicans will retain the Senate. Also believe there is a high chance of Democrats taking the house. Although no official CNN projection yet.

19 more seats to flip House, but Republicans leading some Dem districts too, so real number around 24-26

10:15- McSally slightly ahead in Arizona with 36 percent in. Republicans are also leading in Missouri and North Dakota.
 
Looks like Ted Cruz wins Texas

They will get eight more seats than what is needed in House according to CNN as of now ...

New projections:

Three Republicans win Senate seats again, Republicans need three more seats to win majority in Senate. Was expected by everyone.

MSNBC projects Democrats will win the House

CNN projects Republicans will retain Senate

CNN projects Ted Cruz will win in Texas
 
10:20 50 percent in, Sinema now leads McSally by 1 point

Taylor just lost, it looks like Brat is also going to lose.

Bit early, but it looks like Kemp will win the governorship of Georgia without having to win a run-off

Looks like Mike DeWine will be elected governor of Ohio

10 45- Rick Scott looks likely to flip Bill nelson's senate seat in Florida. DeSantis is also in a good position
 
Dems going to take the House, which is big. Interesting two years ahead of us.
 
It also looks like Republicans can win the governorship of Conneticut, which will be a pretty big upset

Dems going to take the House, which is big. Interesting two years ahead of us.
Although it is possible Republicans get up to 55 seats in the Senate.
 
Go finish your debate with that guy, I didn't bring up 2020 race.
You are being shortsighted. The Democrats have been looking at 2020. And this is the US Politics thread, no?

It's too early to tell who the democrats will rally around in 2020. If Joe Biden decides to make a run, he is going to put up an effective fight.

As far as midterms go, some things did go right for Republicans. Some went right for Democrats. Democrat majority in House will change some political realities depending how things play out. So as I said it will be interesting two years ahead of us.

If we are discussing 2020, its important to note that Scott and DeSantis won in Florida, and Mark DeWine won in Ohio, and Kim Reynolds is ahead in Iowa. There's also a chance Scott Walker could hold onto his office in Wisconsin. So in terms of statewide votes in swing states Trump is in good condition.
