Diversity, decency and a new south: who were the real winners in the US midterms? |

Tuesday was a victory for equity and inclusivity and a rejection of hate and fear. The biggest losers? Megadonors and Super Pacs Rather than regurgitate the particular wins and losses that occurred on Tuesday, I thought it more useful, at this point, to look at the big picture and identify the largest overall winners and losers for the country as a whole. Biggest winner: a diverse, equitable and inclusive America. It’s Donald Trump’s DEI nightmare. Georgia voters elected Keisha Lance Bottoms, the first Black female governor in the country. Texas chose Gina Hinojosa, the state’s first Latina governor and first Democratic governor in more than 30 years. California elected Xavier Becerra, the state’s first Latino governor. New Mexico chose Deb Haaland, the country’s first female Native American governor. Florida elected Byron Donalds, the first Black governor in Florida’s history (a Republican). Continue reading...

‘The light of dawn is on the horizon’: the best moments from US midterm victory speeches | Ted Widmer

Tuesday’s winners offered a new politics at a time when ‘there is something broken in America’ As the US election returns came in throughout the night on Tuesday, there was ebullience at the size of the margin. It was comparable to the significant thumpings over the years. Yet bigger. In 2006, Americans were exhausted by the war in Iraq (by simply changing the last letter to “n”, we have a similar situation today). But even that big win paled in comparison. Continue reading...

First Thing: US goes to polls in vote that will define the last years of Trump’s presidency

Democrats are hoping to seize control in the capitol and rein in the president’s power. Plus, a peacock that loves admiring itself in the mirror a little too much Good morning. Americans are heading to the polls today in US midterm elections widely seen as a referendum on Donald Trump’s second presidency and a chance for opponents to rein in his power. The party holding the White House typically loses congressional seats at midterm elections and Democrats are hoping the president’s nose-diving popularity can be exploited. Meanwhile, the US Department of Justice in California has charged six more people with alleged voter fraud crimes, an escalation of the administration’s campaign against election integrity. However, in a blow to Trump, the supreme court has ruled against attempts to force California election officials to segregate and not count ballots from people the justice department claims are non-citizens. Where have our reporters been covering the crucial midterm races? We have a dispatch from Shrai Popat in New Hampshire , where Republicans were hoping to flip a Senate seat but now worry Trump may be dragging them down, and David Smith has been in Austin , where James Talarico is making an extraordinary bid to break the Texas Democrats’ losing streak.

Midterm elections 2026: how are votes counted and when will we know the results?

Everything you need to know about how winners are called, how states count ballots and Trump’s election denialism There’s no simple answer as to when US voters will know the results of the midterms. Elections are managed locally throughout the US, and it’s different in each state. Sometimes, if a race isn’t close, there’s a near-instantaneous sense of who won.
