How Election Week 2022 Went Down

That’s a big win for Democrats in the Wisconsin gubernatorial race. Because it looks like Republicans failed to win a supermajority in the legislature, the state will remain under divided government, which means Republicans won’t be able to do things like pass an abortion ban or gut the bipartisan Wisconsin Elections Commission.

Republicans managed to flip one seat in South Texas: the 15th District. Just now, ABC News projected a win for Republican Monica De La Cruz over Democrat Michelle Vallejo. (De La Cruz leads Vallejo 53 percent to 45 percent, with 89 percent of the expected vote in.) To be clear, Republicans were always going to have an edge in this race. Not only was the district recently redrawn to be more favorable to the GOP, but national Republicans flooded the airwaves with TV ads attacking Vallejo for being too progressive.

ABC News projects that Democrat Tony Evers will win the governor race in Wisconsin.
