Benson’s lead looks comfortable, but El-Sayed’s is tightening up with not a lot of the vote in yet. You may be pulling an all-nighter waiting for that one.
Wayne county (Detroit) historically is glacial in counting their returns.
It’ll all be fine because apparently I was not talking about the 2026 election. So yay 2026! I dig the feeling too!
The Hill is showing that Benson has won.

Fox News(!) just announced Democrats will win control of the House.
Abbot conceded!
I’ve just muted Johnson. He’s been talking about being proud of the accomplishments in the past two years despite the ‘obstructionist Democrats.’
You may still be in the House, asshole, but you won’t be Speaker any more.
I’d prefer cheese enchiladas with chili on top. But yeah, I’m kind of drunk and that would hit the spot.
Motherfucking fuck yeah!
In accordance with this moderation, I have created a Pit thread for those wishing to discuss these results in a less genteel fashion.
Oregon is already called for Jeff Merkley, at least.
That’s good to hear, thanks.
Thank you, that’s appropriate.
I don’t think that was ever in any doubt.
AP called Talarico.
MSNOW is reporting that Abbott called Hinojosa to concede the governor’s race in Texas.
Texas baby
CNN is calling Brown for OH. That’s flip #4 and a Democratic majority in the Senate.
Yeah, that was a walkover. 
I’m worried about Tina. I hope Oregon stays true to its Democratic tradition!
A blue Texas… we are truly in uncharted territory, at least for this century.
Congratulations to the State of Illinois for having the first two-woman Senate delegation in American history. Both POCs, too!
