Bernie Moreno defeating incumbent Democrat Sherrod Brown in the US Senate race in Ohio making Republican control of the US Senate official IMHO.
It's still close in Nebraska for Incumbent Republican Deb Fischer but right now I see Republicans leading the US Senate races in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin.
Incumbent Democrat Jon Tester is trailing in Montana against Tim Sheehy as well it looks like a good night for the GOP in those US Senate races.
ITS TRUMP 230 AND HARRIS 192 IN THE ELECTORAL VOTE COUNT BUT OF COURSE TRUMP LEADING IN ENOUGH STATES RIGHT NOW TO END UP WITH 71 MORE OR 301 THAT EXCLUDES NEVADA AND ALASKA WHERE TRUMP COULD STILL WIN.
We have votes in Minnesota and with 47.3 percent counted Kamala Harris leading 55.1 percent to 42.8 percent over Donald Trump.

DEMOCRAT CONSULTANT JAMES CARVILLE ON 1992 PRESIDENTIAL RACE WHEN HE MANAGED BILL CLINTON THE WINNING CANDIDATE
The economy a much bigger issue with voters NBC's early exit poll 31 percent rating that their top issue as opposed to 14 percent for abortion.
The clear sense of the situation in the Presidential contest is that Donald Trump will win but how long will it be dragged out by the Mainstream Media?
IN MICHIGAN THE SHIFT TO TRUMP WITH 24.1 PERCENT OF THE VOTE COUNTED TRUMP 49.7 PERCENT TO HARRIS 48.6 PERCENT.

IN WISCONSIN 48.5 PERCENT OF THE VOTE COUNTED TRUMP 49.6 PERCENT HARRIS 48.9 PERCENT.
In Michigan a slow molasses vote count at 20.2 percent now Trump closing the gap 48.4 percent to Harris 49.9 percent.

Back to Georgia 79.8 percent of the vote counted Donald Trump 52.2 percent Kamala Harris 47.2 percent.
The Democrats holding back Gwinnett County in the Atlanta Metro but I feel pretty good about Trump winning here.
Some rural Trump counties not reporting yet.
God Bless President Jimmy Carter but his vote for Kamala Harris appears to not be a vote for the winner in that state as I see it right now.
New Mexico 19.4 percent of the vote counted with Trump leading 50 percent to 48.2 percent.
In Wisconsin 33.8 percent of the vote counted Trump and Harris both at 49.2 percent of the vote.
HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA FIGURES LINING UP MORE EVENLY THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE SHOWING HARRIS AT 51.34 PERCENT TO TRUMP 47.77 PERCENT.

THE AP COUNT AHEAD OF THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE COUNT IN PENNSYLVANIA.
In Pennsylvania at 26.7 percent of the vote Harris 55.6 percent Trump 43.5 percent I see more Election Day votes emerging instead of the mail-in votes tallied early.
Plenty of votes still to be reported from Trump counties and still plenty of votes to be reported from Philadelphia based on what I see on the DOS website.

KIM LEADING IN VOTE COUNT 55-43 PERCENT THE RACE DECLARED FOR HIM.
Over half the vote counted in Virgina (50.8 percent) a state Kamala Harris is expected to win with Trump leading 49.7 to 48.6 percent the Democrats still have Richmond area votes and Tidewater votes in Norfolk-Newport News-Portsmouth-Hampton to help them get the lead back but that's something to behold.
Fairfax County in the DC suburbs keeping pace with these statewide vote totals favoring Trump another Democrat stronghold.
In Electoral Votes 137 for Trump, 99 for Harris no surprises yet in who's winning the states.
In Georgia 66.2 percent of the vote counted Donald Trump 52.6 percent to Kamala Harris 46.8 percent looking good for Trump.
The Big Four Atlanta counties keeping pace with the statewide vote count with the exception of Gwinnett which is lagging only 16.3 percent of the vote counted there so Harris can get a dump out of that county as its vote comes up later.
The US Senate contests and Jim Justice an easy winner Republicans picking up the West Virginia seat Democrat Joe Manchin is leaving.
Now we got a 50-50 Senate the Montana contest may put the GOP over the top Tim Sheehy challenging incumbent Democrat Jon Tester.
