The First Election Results Were Announced In The U.S.

Democrats are leading in a number of states.

Early results from the U.S. congressional midterm elections show Democratic candidates leading in several states, according to CNN.

Specifically, Democrats are leading in three congressional districts in Indiana. In the fifth congressional district, Democrat J.D. Ford is leading incumbent Republican Congresswoman Victoria Spartz. As of this writing, about 29% of the votes have been counted. In the state’s third district, Democratic candidate Kelly Thompson is also leading incumbent Republican Congresswoman Marlin Stutzman. About 31% of the votes have been counted there. In Indiana’s 6th district, Democrat Cynthia Wirth holds a narrow lead over incumbent Republican Congressman Jefferson Shrive. However, only about 6% of the votes have been counted.

In the neighboring state of Kentucky, the race for the 6th congressional district is between Republican Ralph Alvarado and Democrat Zach Dembo. CNN rates the candidates’ chances as roughly even. About 1% of the votes have been counted in the district.

According to CNN’s projection, in Virginia, incumbent Democratic Senator Mark Warner will be re-elected to a fourth term, defeating Republican Bert Mizusawa. Warner serves as vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee; he previously served as governor of Virginia.

In addition, in Florida, Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz was re-elected to the House of Representatives from the 20th congressional district, the AP reports. She defeated Republican Brent Andersen and won a seat for her 12th term. Wasserman-Schultz previously served as chair of the Democratic National Committee.

Polling stations have already closed in six U.S. states—Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina, Vermont, Virginia, and Indiana—as well as in several Florida counties, CNN reports. The last polling places will close on the Aleutian Islands in Alaska on November 4 at 1:00 a.m. Eastern Time (9:00 a.m. in Minsk).
