How Election Week 2022 Went Down

ABC News projects a Republican win in FL-13.

Polls are closing in Delaware. There isn’t much to watch in the state, but the incumbent at-large representative, Democrat Lisa Blunt Rochester, is a favorite to win against her Republican challenger, Lee Murphy. Murphy is a former teacher, Amtrak conductor and actor who is running for the seat for the third time.

Though the polls have closed here in Pennsylvania, we shouldn’t expect to know the result quickly. In part, that’s because of a last-minute decision here in Philadelphia to reinstate a time-consuming process for catching double votes. The city’s Republican election commissioner did not mince words, stating: “I want to be very clear that when there are conversations that occur later this evening about whether or not Philadelphia has counted all of their ballots that the reason that some ballots would not be counted is that Republicans targeted Philadelphia — and only Philadelphia — to force us to conduct a procedure that no other county does,” Seth Bluestein, the sole Republican commissioner, said before voting for reconciliation.”
