Read previewLast Friday, Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. AdvertisementTrump can't take Arizona for grantedBefore Biden won Arizona in 2020, it last voted for a Democratic presidential nominee in 1996. AdvertisementHowever, for Trump, a Harris win in Arizona would be a huge blow in his attempts to win a second term. Biden's 2020 victories in Arizona, Georgia, and Nevada — as well as his wins in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin — effectively cut off Trump's path to victory that year. Should Harris neutralize the border security issue — a feat that seemed unimaginable when Biden was still the presumptive nominee — it'll give her a major opening to win Arizona.

For the midterm election on Nov. 8, there were 35 states that had Senate races.

Social media users are sharing a clip of a sheriff discussing a ballot disbursement incident in Tulsa County and claiming that this took place in the battleground state of Arizona. However, Tulsa County is located in Oklahoma and the incident affected about 30 to 40 voters. KJRH-TV, an NBC affiliate in Tulsa County, reported on Nov. 11, 2022 (here), that the District Attorney is investigating the irregularities. Arizona does not have a county called Tulsa County (here). The ballot disbursement incident happened in Tulsa County, Oklahoma.
Control of the Senate - and the shape of President Joe Biden's next two years in office - will now hinge on contests in Nevada and Georgia. Democrats needed one more seat for control, since Vice President Kamala Harris can cast the tie-breaking vote. Political analysts anticipate a rush of campaign funds into Georgia as Republicans and Democrats gear up for the final battle of the 2022 midterm elections. In the fight for control of the House of Representatives, Republicans were inching closer to becoming the majority and ending four years of rule by Democrats. The Republican House leader, Kevin McCarthy, has already announced his intention to run for speaker if Republicans take over, an outcome he has described as inevitable.
ISTANBUL, Nov 12 (Reuters) - Turkey's effort to complete its purchase of F-16 jets would be "much easier" if Republicans end up controlling the U.S. Senate, President Tayyip Erdogan was quoted by Turkish media as saying on Saturday. "My hope is that the next month is filled with some good news and we progress in a very positive direction on the F-16 issue," state-run Anadolu and other media quoted Erdogan as telling reporters on a flight from Uzbekistan. "If the Republicans claim the few seats they need in Senate, things will be much easier for us." While the F-16 purchase has critics and supporters in both parties, Bob Menendez, Democratic chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, could stand in the way given his repeated criticism of Turkey's human rights record under Erdogan. Erdogan said in September that he had received "positive" feedback from two U.S. senators he met in New York on their potential support for the F-16 sale.
Trump on Thursday tried to spin the GOP's disappointing midterm results as a success story. High-profile candidates Trump endorsed were beaten or underperformed. Republicans on Wednesday started blaming Trump for the absence of a "red wave." Trump endorsed more than 200 candidates elections, many of whom were running in safe seats where GOP candidates were expected to win regardless of who endorsed them. Overall, the Republican "red wave" of sweeping gains in the election that some analysts were anticipating did not arrive, and some Republicans moved to blame Trump.

The top House Republican, Kevin McCarthy, said early on Wednesday he was confident his party would prevail as its candidates showed signs of closing in on victory. * With 44 of 435 House seats still lacking a clear winner, Republicans were leading in vote tallies for 17 of them. If they hold onto those leads, McCarthy would likely replace Democrat Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House. * If Cortez Masto and Kelly prevail, Democratic control of the Senate would likely continue through the second half of Biden's term. Currently the Senate is split 50-50 with Vice President Kamala Harris, a Democrat, able to cast the tie-breaking vote.
