How Election Week 2022 Went Down
With Fetterman’s projected win, Oz is now the sixth Trump-backed candidate to be defeated tonight. Here are the other five:
- In New Hampshire, Republican Don Bolduc is projected to lose the Senate race to incumbent Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan. Bolduc is among Republicans that accepted the results of the 2020 election (though with reservations), and Trump endorsed him late in the election.
- Elsewhere in Pennsylvania, ABC News projects Doug Mastriano to be defeated by Josh Shapiro in the governor’s race. Trump endorsed Mastriano in the GOP primary and hosted a rally for him Saturday night.
- In Maryland, Trump’s pick for governor, Dan Cox, is projected to lose to Democrat Wes Moore. Cox attended the Jan. 6 rally that preceded the attack on the Capitol and has claimed the 2020 election was “rigged.”
- Trump endorsed Republican Geoff Diehl for Massachusetts governor, which was always a long-shot race. ABC News projects Democrat Maura Healey to win the seat.
- And lastly, in New York, ABC News projects incumbent Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul to beat Trump-endorsed Republican Lee Zeldin.
Fetterman delivers victory speech after projected Democratic Senate win in Pennsylvania:
ABC News is also projecting that Rep. Angie Craig will win reelection in Minnesota’s 2nd District. Craig currently leads her Republican challenger, Marine veteran Tyler Kistner, 51 percent to 46 percent with 91 percent of the expected vote reporting. The Deluxe version of our forecast gave Craig an 80-in-100 chance of holding onto this light-blue seat, which has a FiveThirtyEight partisan lean of D+1.
