L4Deeper impact

Why Georgia matters: AP: "Ossoff was the only Senate Democrat seeking reelection in a state that President Donald Trump won in 2024, and holding his seat was critical to his party's hopes of flipping control of the Senate." Analysis: All of these AP calls except Florida's Senate race went to Democrats, and none of the seats changed party. Context (AP, Kevin Freking, "Democrats hold 2 Florida seats targeted in redistricting"): "Republicans are falling short in their efforts to pick up four House seats in Florida through redistricting." UPDATE 8:38 p.m. ET: House seats so far, per NBC News Decision Desk projections (data from The Associated Press), not an AP tally: "Democratic seats" 49, "Republican seats" 20, with 218 needed for a majority ("Last update 8:37 PM ET"). These figures are unofficial and changing. UPDATE 8:53 p.m. ET: House seats so far, per NBC News Decision Desk projections (data from The Associated Press), not an AP tally: "Democrats 60 seats", "Republicans 27 seats", with "Number of seats for majority: 218" ("Last update 8:52 PM ET"). These figures are unofficial and changing.
