How Election Week 2022 Went Down

As in Georgia, polls in Pennsylvania consistently showed a Senate race that was closer than its governor’s race. So one question is going to be whether and to what extent Pennsylvania’s Senate race and governor’s race run in tandem. So far, the polls have been borne out, with Democratic gubernatorial candidate Josh Shapiro winning 87 percent of the vote, while Fetterman is slightly below 83 percent. But vote-rich South Central Pennsylvania, where GOP gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano is from, has yet to report votes.

ABC News projects that incumbents Carol Miller and Alexander Mooney will win the House seats in West Virginia’s 1st and 2nd Districts, respectively. These wins aren’t surprising, although it’s worth mentioning that Mooney did beat out a fellow incumbent, David McKinley, in the primaries this year: Reps. Mooney and McKinley found themselves head to head after West Virginia lost one of its three House seats this cycle, in light of redistricting.

As we’ve said time and time again, Latino voters are not a monolith. And the preliminary results in Florida may be the clearest example of this (of course, these results will continue to update throughout the evening). To be clear, the gubernatorial race has already been projected for Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, and you can see how Latino counties didn’t break Democrats’ way. Miami-Dade county is nearly 70 percent Hispanic or Latino, according to census records, and DeSantis leads there by 10 points. This, of course, stands in stark contrast to what happened in DeSantis’s previous race, in 2018, when Latinos went for Andrew Gillum, DeSantis’s Democratic challenger at the time, by 10 points: 54 percent to 44 percent.
