Running update below.
We know left-leaning people are voting Republican while holding their noses this evening. It doesn’t mean they will ever vote Republican again, but they want to put Grandpa Joe out to pasture. At least one ad in New York noted that people don’t want to vote Republican, but they needed to vote for Lee Zeldin this time to save New York. According to an exit poll, two-thirds of voters don’t want Biden to run in 2024.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina are projected to win.
Mike DeWine will remain as governor of Ohio. Marco Rubio won overwhelmingly in Florida.
If this is any sign of things to come, Gov. DeSantis is taking Democrat areas this evening.
Gov. DeSantis won Miami-Dade 54-46 in early voting. Hillsborough is also going for DeSantis. He won overwhlemingly over Charlie Crist.
Just in: DeSantis wins early vote in Miami Dade 54-46.

Anna Paulina Luna won in Florida’s 13th. It’s a Democrat-to-Republican flip.
Rand Paul won re-election. He’s great.
Srah Huckabee Sanders is now governor of Arkansas.
At the same time, some states, like Pennsylvania and New York, will count ballots until the 14th and 15th, respectively.
The most untrustworthy people want you to trust only them:

Republicans have flipped seven seats in the House and only needed to flip five. We aren’t seeing a red wave, and races are very close. Republicans will win the House significantly. The Senate is unknown at this time, but it doesn’t look like they can win more than fifty-one.
