Democrats Sweep Republicans in Nearly Every Race That Matters
WIRED reports Democrats' sweep in the midterm elections, with wins in key battleground races, flips of seats Donald Trump had carried by double digits, and Texas victories by James Talarico over Ken Paxton and Gina Hinojosa over Greg Abbott despite Elon Musk's spending — the state's first statewide Democratic wins since 1994. Republicans' redistricting strategy failed, and Trump officials blame the Iran war's gas prices and cost of living, while WIRED calls the night a decisive repudiation of Trump's second term.
