Florida Republican Governor Rick Scott will oust Democratic Senator Bill Nelson from the seat he has occupied for 18 years. Scott denies Nelson a fourth term and further expands the GOP’s majority in the Senate.

We are down to just a few more races!  I can't thank everyone enough for watching us live.  We've been doing this since 3pm Pacific.  It is now about 9pm Pacific!

[Darrin]

I've been watching!  You guys are doing a stellar job at keeping everyone up to date.  There is still about 30 or so people watching the politics topic at all times since this afternoon!  Good job guys.

[Silverwing]

Thank you so much.

[MasterXtreme]

Much appreciated.  Just glad others can learn or see the election process.

[MasterXtreme]

And with that, I think that about wraps it up for us and our live blog of the MIDTERM 2018 elections.  We learned a lot.  We still have some races to call and will do so if it's major tonight or talk about them tomorrow.

We have some from California, Washington, Oregon, Montana, Arizona, and Nevada.  Also a few races too close to call out east such as Georgia.  We will keep you up to date, but for the most part, we are done for the evening.

I would like to thank you for watching and thank my co-host, Silverwing for his help tonight.

[Silverwing]

Well thank you, MasterXtreme.  You did an upstanding job tonight.

In a nutshell what we saw tonight was NOT a blue wave.  We saw a strong Republican surge shutting down pollsters once again with a strong growth in the ever powerful Senate.  Democrats did pick up the House, but not nearly as many seats as they had hoped for.  Meaning that the American people for the most part are still fully behind the policy and plans of President Donald Trump.  Things will be a bit harder for him with the Democrat House control, but they still have the Senate to take control.

With that, thank you everyone and have a great night.

[MasterXtreme]

And that's all folks.

Here's our closing theme song. ;-)

[FoxTail]

Nice touch with the song at the end there, MasterX.   Thanks you guys.  I was checking here on and off.  You did a great job!

We have some updates from the elections. 

WASHINGTON HOUSE Race Update.

This will be a house flip from Republican to Democrat. This is the first time in this districts history that it went blue instead of red with the Republicans.  Unknown percentage counted.

Kim Schrier (D) 53%

Dino Rossi (R) 47%

MONTANA SENATE UPDATE 94% in.

Tester (D) 49%

Rosendale (R) 47%

NEVADA GOVERNORS UPDATE 97% in.

Rosen (D) 50%

Heller (R) 45%

WISCONSIN GOVERNORS UPDATE 99% in. 

A socialist running under the Democrat banner will beat the very successful incumbent governor.  This was a shock too many.  Under Walker, WI had record low unemployment and a booming economy ranked one of the best in the US including lower taxes.  So it was unexpected a socialist with no accomplishments won.

Evers (D) 49%

Walker (R) 48%


ARIZONA SENATE update 74% in.  This race is too close to call.

McSally (R) 49%

Sinema (D) 48%

UTAH SENATE update 70%.  Romney will win this seat.

Romney (R) 63%

Wilson (D) 31%

INDIANA SENATE Update 95% in.

A somewhat surprise Republican win, but they campaigned hard to win this and add to their senate seats.

Bruan (R) 52%

Donnelly (D) 44%

FLORIDA SENATE update 99% in.

Scott (R) 50%

Nelson (D) 49%

FLORIDA GOVERNOR update 99% in.

DeSantis (R) 49.7%

Gillum (D) 49%

ALASKA GOVERNOR update 71% in.

Incumbent Walker, an Independent is losing massively.  Well known Begich is losing which is a surprise.

Dunleavy (R) 52%

Begich (D) 43%

Walker (I) 2%

TEXAS SENATE Update 98% in.

Cruz (R) 51%
