Key Headlines
Democrat Lanon Baccam looking for an upset in Iowa’s 3rd District
In Iowa’s 3rd Congressional District, a competitive race that the 538 forecast rated as Lean Republican, Democratic challenger Lanon Baccam has an early lead, ahead of Republican freshman incumbent Rep. Zach Nunn 57% to 43%, with 49% of the expected vote reporting.
I don't like Osborn's chances, Monica
It's true that Osborn is leading in Nebraska, Monica, but I don't like his chances. That's because most of the votes that are reporting are from relatively liberal Omaha and Lincoln. I expect Fischer to gain once rural Nebraska reports.
One particularly bad omen for Osborn: He's running basically even with Harris in the state, and Harris is not going to win Nebraska.
Maryland, New York projected to pass reproductive rights measures
ABC News has projected that the ballot measures in Maryland and New York that enshrined reproductive rights into state law will pass.
Can an independent win in Nebraska's Senate race?
With 29% of the expected vote reporting, Osborn leads Fischer 55% to 45% in the race for Nebraska’s Senate seat. Nebraska is a solidly Republican state, so Osborn's performance there has been an unexpected surprise: Recent polls have shown a tied race. Osborn has tried to cut an idiosyncratic middle path, supporting abortion rights and unions while championing the Second Amendment, and has not said whether he will caucus with either part if he wins.
