Full recap

Election at a glance

Coverage includes U.S. Senate, U.S. House and governor. The governor flip count covers the 36 state races. Chamber totals use called seats and Senate holdovers, including independents who caucus with a party.

Flips compare civicAPI’s calls with its election-day seat-holder party. Close races are ranked by the top two candidates’ margin among reported votes after at least 1,000 votes are counted. Rankings can change as more ballots come in. Source and methodology ↗

Waiting for the feed

The closest uncalled races, live. Path to win is the share of the ballots still out the trailing candidate needs. Couch estimate is our own arithmetic on the count so far, not a forecast and not a race call. Votes left come from each feed’s reporting share, so treat them as rough.
