Democrats are winning not only in "swing states," but also by a huge margin in Texas — where Trump had a 14% lead two years ago, and now Republicans are losing by 12%; in South Carolina — from where Republican Senator Graham previously hailed; in Georgia, Kansas — where a Democrat hasn't won since 1932 — and Iowa. Possibly, even in Mississippi.
Democrats will secure 21—22 of the contested Senate seats, while Republicans will get only 13—14. This gives Democrats a total of either 55 or 56 seats in the Senate.
In the House of Representatives, Democrats will have about 260 out of 435 seats.
The composition of Congress will be such that an impeachment procedure against Trump can be expected in the House of Representatives, and his fate will depend on the stance of a group of Republican senators.
New stars have emerged in the Democratic Party, worth keeping an eye on. These are primarily Senator from Georgia Jon Ossoff, who won by an 18-point margin in a state that was traditionally 50-50. And also Senator from Texas, teacher and Protestant seminarian James Talarico.
These elections were effectively a referendum on trust in Trump, and he lost it, which will have wide-ranging consequences for American politics.
