LIVE UPDATES: 2022 Senate, Governor Results
Will Oz beat Fetterman? Will Kari Lake beat Katie Hobbs for AZ governor?
The first polls close at 5:00 PM ET. We will update the results as they come in, especially the key results.
That is, if we get the results today.
Key Senate Races: New Hampshire, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and maybe Washington
Key Governor Races: Michigan, Nevada, Oregon, and Wisconsin
New Hampshire
I figured NH Democratic incumbent Sen. Maggie Hassan would win. It is a huge hold for the Democrats.
Decision Desk HQ projects that MAGGIE HASSAN will win re-election in the New Hampshire Senate race. Big hold for Democrats.
Inside Elections rating heading into E-Day: Tilt Democratic.

DeSantis Wins!
WOOHOO! And guess what. Crist resigned his seat in FL-13, which went to a Republican, to run against DeSantis.
Dana Perino just said that Crist is the only one to lose a statewide election as a Republican, Independent, and Democrat.
Dyyyyying!

Tim Scott, Rand Paul
Okay, I know these were no brainers but can you imagine Rand Paul in a Republican majority Senate? Watch out, Fauci!
Scott won as soon as the polls closed. LOL.

Will Oz beat Fetterman? Yes.
Will Oz actually be the Senator after the Democrats are done ‘counting’ in a week? That’s the real question.
No
Pretty much this.
Not only does it look like Fetterman will win, it is likely that Warnock will or GA will head to a run off. Wittmer and Hochul also look like they are going to win. Hassan looks safe. I hope I am wrong but the indications are troubling.
The early success in FL does not appear to be carrying over.
How much damage did Trump do with his antics this past week is the big question.
VA House races show it too. Pickup in VA2 but VA7 and VA10 breaking for the Dems. May not be a wave after all.
Fung losing in RI too.
This sucks.
“How much damage did Trump do with his antics this past week is the big question….”
I was going to say ‘you must be kidding’, but I realize you weren’t. But for Trump, NONE of these victories would be occurring.
Hassan romped, Johnson is struggling, Oz is likely to lose. Masters getting destroyed.
VA 7 and 10 not very close.
This is shaping up as a disaster and you think that the most polarizing man in America jumping in at the end to make it all about him and his “big announcement” and trashing the best hope Republicans have to win in 2024 didn’t have an impact in these races then you are just a fool.
And I would add Kemp in a romp while Walker struggles and we may again face the possibility of a GA runoff to control the Senate.
Trump fucked that up 2 years ago and will no doubt do it again.
Well Bitch McConnell sure as hell wasn’t out there doing anything.
He whined for months about candidates and then PULLED FUNDING from NH to try and prop up his pet RINO in Alaska instead of actually winning seats.
I’ll take Trump over the GOPe scumbags every single day of the week.
103/4 loses for Trump so far
You chose the proper name, one ending in insanity.
You are the reason we have a screwed up country. People like you will vote for a potato if it has the GOPe stamp of approval.
Agreed
Right, its McConnell’s fault not the momentum killing narcissist who had to inject himself into the discussion at the last minute. Look at me, look at me, I’m making a big announcement…
Consider these results in the light of having a literal dementia patient in the WH, multi-generational inflation, no energy policy whatsoever, a wide open border, etc, etc
What a fucking disaster.
You’re a disaster alright. 100%. You always blame Trump. It doesn’t matter that but for Trump we wouldn’t have a chance.
Go bow down before chinaMitch.
None of them? Dude that’s not true. The candidates matter, the money they have from funding to buy ads and get out the vote matters.
You can’t cherry pick and say credit for winning but refuse blame for losing via endorsement when you put the endorsement on a pedestal.
Early success in FL is because FL has election integrity.
The other places are cheating, and it shows.
Want to fix elections? Fix election integrity. Until then, cheaters gonna cheat.a
And I laugh
Thisnis a MAGA election! Thisnis what President Trump worked so hard for 1.5 years at
Believe those ridiculous polls at your peril
The republicans that win tonight, win with MAGA
What is surreal is that Hochul is winning in NY by a landslide. Are these people CRAZY?
https://nypost.com/2022/11/08/ny-election-day-live-updates-hochul-zeldin-governor-race-others/
can’t answer your question; I broke out of that insane asylum 30 years ago and they haven’t found me yet – haha haha haha
I hope NY and PA get what they voted for and hard… don’t come running to Fl… when it hits the fan… you are not welcome.
Get your head out of your backside. We needed middle of the road Dems and independents to break Rep in multiples races across the country. Many of these people hate Trump.
His decision to make himself the story again this past week instead of just staying quiet, has seriously damaged Republican chances across the country.
He screwed us in GA in Jan 2021 and he may have done it again.
Earth to massinsanity…. Earth to massinsanity…. Can you read me?….
As much as I say, “Those who want Conservative outcomes must eventually vote for the person running as a Conservative”, I wish to point at Illinois former Governor Rauner. Did he help things at all in Illinois?
Would someone *like* him have helped?
Yes, he helped slow down the decline in IL. Chicago politics will always run Illinois. The best that can be hoped for is to slow down the progressives on their march toward whatever evil end game they are marching toward. Can one governor over 4 years really change decades of corrupt politics in state governed from a city the likes of Chicago? Of course not.
Speaking of…where is Major Tom? Is he in shadow ban land?
Here’s an interesting question for the professor. Herschel Walker has admitted that he was diagnosed with multiple personality disorder. If a voter writes in one of his alternate personalities, and so votes, will that vote be counted for Walker? Walker found it especially hard to accept that he had 14 different personalities because he can only count to 3.
Are you done pretending to be clever?
Leave Walter alone
Are you just beginning to display your insecurity?
Yawn, I guess you aren’t done pretending to be clever.
Another keyboard warrior.
So, you are saying a black man can’t count to three?
Hoo whee, that sounds like my lefty friends saying the quiet part loudly.
Your rock awaits…
Actually, black children outperform whites in basic arithmetic but fall behind with abstract higher mathematics.
I think society should work to help all children achieve their potential.
I do not think we should advance people past their innate capabilities. 60 years of putting lipstick on a pig has severely damaged society.
The color of one’s skin has absolutely nothing to with any individual’s application of math.
This sub-moron admitted two weeks ago that he had never heard of minimum wage laws.
What are minimum wage laws?
I don’t think he would worry over your opinion.
Still better than the communist wife-beater regardless.
I agree, but how shameful he is the candidate. All because he and the Donald exchange trollop stories.
Howard your Trump derangement syndrome is showing
Actually they have know each other for decades. He’s a good guy. Has he done some dumb things, made mistakes… yes, like ALL
Of us. But he found God and got his life on track
I have done things I’m not so sure I will ever see heaven, but I’ve tried to be a better person, do good things, always tell the truth, volunteer as a medical person, and that’s what I can do.
Must be good to feel so superior
Personally, I respect those who fell and got back up. Strength is shown by tests.
Hunt’s a dope. Just another deep state butthole.
That’s a real knee-slapper…
Reading ACE of Spades on the low turn out mentioned in some places, I’m beginning to believe Smiley has a shot in Wa.
Beyond the margin of cheating…dunno.
I’ve been pessimistic because of what I see here every day. It’s turning into a shithole and people are generally accepting of it as though it weren’t the direct action of Dem power.
I hope I am wrong. None the less- they will return to voting stupid the moment the pain subsides by one iota.
Fox News is trying to call it for the Neanderthal
Fetterman would be an insult to Neanderthals, especially since theories about reduced intelligence are now debunked.
Oz is still an awful candidate though. It never should have been this close.
Nice sense of humor. Somebody gave you a thumbs down though. It wasn’t me.
Yes. Oz is a horrifically bad candidate, I said that months ago, I think he’s the single biggest mistake Trump made this year.
An incoherent lump like Fetterman should have been easy to put away, but Oz has offered people absolutely nothing to actually vote FOR, its all just been negative coverage of Fetterman.
It’s Pa, it’s democrat black controlled, after what they did to Trump with their 3 am dump of 1.2 million votes and not fixing anything
Did we really expect Pa to go red?
Dem Anthony DeLuca won a seat as a State Rep in PA yesterday.
Small problem – he died of cancer on October 9th.
“easy to put away”
That’s what intelligent people think. The reality is, it’s pennsylvania where ANY democrat starts with 40+%. They would get 40+ if they were dead. So, no, regardless of how good the R candidate is, or isn’t, winning is a close thing in a state full of idiots.
Add in the cheating, and there you have it, nothing easy.
All the better reason not to run a nonentity like Oz.
The seat was literally an R in the previous cycle.
I live in Texas, griz. You live in Kali. Did either of us have a vote in the PA Senate race? And speaking of non-entities, Fetterman is brain dead. He’s a zombie. I fail see how he’s a better choice for Senator than someone who obviously won’t be a reliable Republican.

Anyone who votes for any democrat in any race is a full blown idiot
Amen
Which means a democrat is the only one who will vote for a democrat which means they are idiots twice removed.
How many more offices can we convince Crist to run for?
Maybe he and Robert O’Rourke can combine on a Presidential ticket to further cement their electoral loser status.
With beto
Do I detect a sense of humor?
Sorry didnt see you too thought of Francis
Vance is behind in OH. Running about 11.5 % behind DeWine performance in the Gov race. Two r candidates Statewide with a huge disparity in performance. DeWine is winning counties that Vance is losing.
Ticket splitting. Lack of funding is rearing it’s head and a certain someone who has collected but not spent the $100 M + towards direct candidate support. Also a certain Senate minority leader who decided not to commit more funding. Lack of funds for get out the vote efforts, advertising and direct voter engagement to convince folks that voted for a R for Gov to pull the lever for Vance. Tragic mistake and shouldn’t have happened.
The egos involved here look as of we are going to lose a very winnable Senate seat. To much dick measuring between DJT and McConnell. Both left $ unspent that might have made the difference in OH.
Given the likelihood of shenanigans in PA leaving $ unspent in OH because ‘reasons’ is an example of how often our leadership fails by putting themselves above the goal of winning the race by supporting the damn nominee in the general election.
McConnell’s type have learned that there is almost no benefit to having a slim majority. They can be the minority party and stay in on the grift while bearing zero responsibility for anything that goes wrong. It’s quite a turtle’s way of being a life-sucking DC parasite.
“It’s quite a turtle’s way of being a life-sucking DC parasite.”
Hey, that’s not humor. Maybe I should take that literally.
I think Vance pulls it out
Lets hope, I which is all we have left with the polls closed. That’s a huge gap, 11.5%, between the performance of the top two r statewide races with 30% of the vote in. That was a while back.
Lots of ticket splitting which means some folks willing to pull the lever for a r for Gov were unwilling to do so for Vance. Funding drives the on the ground door knocking and ad buys that help close the sale. This drama and juvenile , ego driven, selfish crap between the leadership factions has got to stop once we have a damn nominee.
Don’t sit on fundraising $. Don’t take anything for granted. Always run like you are 5 points down and be willing to set aside personal dislike to support the nominees chosen in the primary. I really dislike selfish MF who expect everyone else to go along with their BS. Just in case you couldn’t tell.😊
Vance is the projected winner.
He did!
Texas governor is winning but down races Lt Gov and AG are losing to Democrats
Yuck!
It now patron and Lt Gov up in double digits , phew!
Patton dang autocorrect
You’re wasting you time on Fox. If you want to get the latest results, try the SoS results page: https://results.texas-election.com/races. It updates every 5 minutes.
I don’t do fox
Nah Abbott, Patrick and Paxton are all proj to win now.
Winning big.
Why is it always the “blue” states that screw up voting? They, the democrats, have screwed up this country in just 2 years but tonight that will end.
Apparently not
Sad!
Too many Californians have moved to Texas and really Abbott is does not have coat tails but if Paxton does not win Texas will have a RADICAL AG

Fetterman will be unable to give a victory speech.
He probably won’t even know he won.
Beto will be back. He still has a shot at losing an election for dog catcher.
If a seat opens up, he can easily win something in Houston or El Paso.
IDK, I lived in El Paso for ten years leaving in Jan of 21 and they are kinda over dealing with Beto. Lots of dems there are done with guy.
2022 – the Red Ripple – What a disaster – Best case scenario may be that, once again, we will need to win a runoff in GA to take the Senate. What particularly irks me is that Brandon will be out bragging before we know it.
A ce gave his victory speech and NEVER mentioned President Trump
Hundreds of people are giving victory speeches tonight, and most of them won’t mention either Trump or Biden.
Vance….
I guess New Yorkers love crime, and Pennsylvanians don’t care if Biden closes coal mines across the country–if those things continue or happen, I don’t want to hear one word from New York or Pennsylvania–they had their chance, and they voted for more of the same
I do t think the Republicans are going to win the house
They are already blaming trump when the Gope pulled all their money, never went and campaigned for anyone
They wanted to lose, dead God I hate the Republican Party
Look what they are doing in Az, the dem SOS is running for govt won’t debate won’t refuse herself for monitoring the count
Immediately the machines don’t work in Az and she is gearing probably the most polished candidate anywhere.
Their crooks, GOPe among the worst.
Have to say, I’m in shock
Looks like that red tsunami turned into a ripple.
Not even that
Actually listening to Charlie Kirk, NY looks like it will give us the house
As I sit here (shocked), it looks like the Democrats could very well keep the House. While acknowledging that ballots counted later could swing results significantly either way (due to differences in early /mail voting and election day voting), look at the current totals:
Democrats: called 166 plus lead of 5 ponts or more 40 = 206
Republicans: called 191 plus lead of 5 points or more 14 = 205
Remaining races:
CA27 R+4
NY04 R+4
WI03 R+4
AZ05 R+3
CA22 R+3
MD06 R+2
MI07 R+2
NY19 R+2
NY17 R+1.2
NY22 R+1.2
AZ02 R+1.0
IA03 R+0.67
NM02 R+0.37
NY18 D+0.83
PA07 D+1.6
CT05 D+1.7
CA03 D+2
CA13 D+2
CO03 D+2
CO08 D+2
OR06 D+2
PA08 D+2
IL17 D+3
MI08 D+4
B.C. (before cheating) that comes to 218-217 in favor of the Republicans. Just looking at the locations of some of the outstanding ballots, I don’t believe that Republicans can maintain their leads in all of those races. At this moment, I would have to predict a four seat gain in the House (taking Republicans to 216, as opposed to 219 for the Democrats), and no change in the Senate.
Change NM02 to D+0.53, so Democrats lead in 218 seats and Republicans lead in 217 seats.
No don’t believe that I’m listening to Charlie Kirk
My confidence in safe and secure elections lost tonight. Big wins for the Ds and Uniparty Rs.
War room Charlie Kirk amd friends just went off the air, said Kari will win ,Blake very possibly will but very very close
Nevada will have a Republican Governor Laxalt , I’m sure I misspelled his name , it’s late and I’m
Going to bed
Well, Trump really screwed the pooch. Once again.
Trump? How is this Trumps fault, he had like 107/9 winners last night!
All he did was campaign as hard as he could for the people who carry the MAGA message. AND supply millions of dollars of his pack money as the Rest Naos, refused to financially support MANY candidates!
It was McConnell who sabotaged this election along with the RNC, much like 2020.
They want to destroy MAGA! The Democrats spent 1.5 billon on their taxes amd the Republicans, outside of Trump spent Pennie’s, had no plan nor any message.
I most States such asPa have done nothing to correct their massive cheating machine, which I am Pretty sure was in full use yesterday, definitely . Include AZ in that and Milwaukee. .
Until our voting is cleaned up, we will never have a fair election again. Florida cleaned their mess up, and we saw what can happen when ciites like Bowles county no longer have a hack working for the Democratic Party.
Tshibaka leading Murkowski in AK. 44.3 – 42.8.
The first candidate who gets a majority of the vote wins. If nobody gets more than 50% of the vote in the first round, people’s second, third and fourth choices are factored in until someone gets to 50%. Election officials aren’t expected to finish counting ballots for up to two weeks, at which point the ranked choice voting system will kick into action.
Hopefully they will sort it out before the Senate is seated in Jan. It won’t flip the seat (on paper at least) but it will possibly get rid of one of the Senate’s prime RINOs.
