There’s a separate thread for the Senate elections, because that’s far, far easier to track than the House races and the Gubernatorial races.
Consider this thread open to everything else! House, Governor, state and local measures, everything else!
Polls start closing at 7 PM Eastern, 4 PM Pacific. My plan is to be obsessively posting results as they come in.
Current standings:
US House of Representatives:
Republicans: 218

Every seat is up for re-election with 218 necessary for a majority.
Update Current called races put the House at 253 D, 160 R, with 22 still undecided. As near as I can tell, Republicans only managed to flip a single Democratic seat, Texas 32.

I can’t believe I’m about to go to sleep and have an actual, real chance of waking up to a blue Texas. It was mythical, intangible, a flight of fancy. And now I might see it with my own two eyes. I know I shouldn’t have even looked but I just couldn’t resist.
Abbot just conceded! You can go to sleep now!
GTFO!!!

And Ohio just got called!
Dafuq is this feeling‽
Is this hope?
Is this what hope feels like?
It’s been so long…
Like hell I can. No way.
Video of the concession here:

Typical for Abbot. You know, he never would stand up for Texas.
Talarico and Hinojosa have already won.
Of the 10 already-confirmed House seats, 9 are Dems. And I’m seeing a lot of light blue squares in Texas (uncalled yet but leaning Dem).
Governor, AG, LG, RR commish - wild. I’m elated. I didn’t think it possible, even in hopeful years past. That LG get is massive due to our ridiculous state lege. Anything else majority-wise is icing at this point. I know it’s not a universal rebuke across the country, even as things are going well. But I didn’t in my wildest dreams expect the absolute trouncing in the state. All TX Supreme Court seats went blue by good margins too.
I had always heard about the mythical ‘Blue Texas’, but I didn’t think it would come like this! Prophecy fulfilled.
How’s your state legislature looking?
Can you explain why a blue Texas is good? Like people moved from California to leave the bad policies behind but are voting in California policies?
sure, here is handy guide:
fascists - bad
not fascists - good
Using the word fascist for not fascist things makes it less meaningful
'The Trump regime continues to attack all the independent institutions in this country that have traditionally served as buffers against tyranny – universities, non-profits, lawyers and law firms, the media, science and researchers, libraries and museums, the civil service and independent agencies – threatening them with extermination or loss of funding if they do not submit to its oversight and dictatorial demands. Trump even instructed the Department of Justice to investigate ActBlue, the platform that handles the fundraising for almost all Democratic candidates and the issues Democrats support. We are no longer Democrats or Republicans. We are either patriots fighting the regime or we are complicit in its tyranny. There is no middle ground. Trump is still actively destroying the economy. His proposed tariffs are still raising prices. His attacks on the Fed chief, Jerome Powell, persist in causing tremors around the world. Trump wants total power, even at the cost of our democracy and economy. His polls are plummeting yet many Americans are still in denial. “He’s getting things done!” some say. “He’s tough and strong!” Every American with any shred of authority must loudly and boldly explain the danger we are still in.
you forgot his own gestapo murdering people in the streets, running concentration camps and deporting us citizens into third world countries ignoring the court order telling him not to do so
Not sure what youre on about but, just in case, California =/= Texas
Texas got a huge influx of Californians because California has horrible policies. Now Texas is “blue” which is “good” because… Moving states and voting for the same shit that ruined the state you moved from is ridiculously dumb.
I really like the policy of the government not actively trying to kill me.
So this seems like a good sign for that
How’s it actively trying to kill you
They sorta just came out and said it. They think we’re “unhumans” that need to be killed. We’re not real humans so the law can’t protect us. JD Vance waved around a manifesto saying conservatives need to load up their muskets and ignore the rules. A lot of us believe them when they say they want us to die.
Lmao. People left California because the cost of living is too high because so many people want to live there (and because the state government is too capitalist to do anything to make it affordable). So they went to Texas, where it’s cheap because no one wants to live there because it’s even more capitalist.
Yeah and they are going to make the same fucking thing in Texas. How are you so near sighted to not see this.
Cool gif I guess?
Do you think I’m from California for some reason?
Why would I think that? You’re a Democrat I just think you’re dumb.
lol little red kid thinks I’m a Dem
Have you ever been to California? How is it ruined?
Homelessness. Taxes. Cost of living. Drugs. Literally everything. And if you look at Houston, the same shit is starting from the moving of Californians
What bad policies?
A significant number of republicans didn’t leave California. It looks like there are around 5 million there. Texas is estimated to have only 6 million republicans.
it was federal election. not state. what california policies? texas is still red on the inside they just went blue on federal level. In other words NOTHING changed for texas, but a lot changed on federal level
dafuq? gov, lt gov, and a few others already flipped D
