With Republican Marsha Blackburn winning the Tennessee senate seat again, I think any hope of the Senate flipping is shot.
I don't think too many realistic people expected the Dems to win the Senate anyway, but it wasn't impossible.
Democrat Beto O'Rourke is beating Republican incumbent Ted Cruz for the Texas senate seat by a hair with 75% of the vote in. Much closer than some Beto skeptics expected, but too close to call.
Georgia and Florida are the big disappointments of the night SO FAR, for me. Both the governor and senate races are too early to call right now, but Democrat Stacey Abrams is trailing Republican Brian Kemp by quite a bit for Georgia governor. Democrat Andrew Gillum is trailing Republican Ron DeSantis for governor of Florida. And, Republican Rick Scott is leading incumbent Democrat Bill Nelson for Florida senate.
Dems have picked up several House seats and I still think they'll end up taking majority control from Republicans by quite a few seats.
