The forecasts have proven true. Additionally, as expected, Democrats picked up several gubernatorial seats and state legislatures. In a historical context, it is highly unusual for the President’s party to lose seats in one chamber of Congress while gaining seats in the other. The last time this took place was in the midterm election of 1982 under President Ronal Reagan (-26 House seats, +1 Senate seat). The details of the election results and the party breakdowns for the 116th Congress are detailed in the pages below. Several states still have outstanding ballots and votes to be counted, so official numbers may change in the coming days and weeks. Additionally, states and jurisdictions have varying procedures surrounding runoff elections, counting provisional and absentee ballots, and recounts which could further delay results in several races. Although we will see dozens of new faces in Congress next year, the 115th Congress still has work to complete. Members will return to Washington, D.C. on November 13 to begin the lame duck session. Several important legislative items remain to be addressed by lawmakers before Congress adjourns for the December holidays. Troutman Sanders Strategies will provide an additional report in the coming days describing the lame duck to-do list, a policy outlook for the 116th Congress, and what changes we can expect to see in congressional leadership and committee makeup. Thank you, Troutman Sanders Strategies Washington, D.C. 1 HOUSE ELECTION RESULTS House Democrats will hold at least 222 seats in the lower chamber, gaining a net of 27 seats at minimum. Republicans, meanwhile, will hold at least 196 seats. Several races remain undecided or too close to call, but Democrats are expected to expand on their new majority. Several Democratic House pickups came from suburban districts in states like New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. Below you will find a table detailing dozens House races across the country that were considered among the most competitive by Cook Political Report and Sabato’s Crystal Ball. The indexes and ratings are up to date as of November 7. Of these competitive races, Democrats flipped 19 districts that President Trump won in 2016, while Republicans flipped six districts that Hillary Clinton won. Please note that some official House race results are still pending with votes outstanding and some of the data may change. 2016 State-District Index/Rating Democrat Republican Results Presidential *Highlighted in TSS Election Outlook Clinton 50% - Ann Lea Marquez Kirkpatrick 53.3% Arizona-2 R+1/Lean D Trump 45% Kirkpatrick Peterson Peterson 46.7% Trump 52% - Rep.

  • How Trump Could Help Decide Who Wins Control of the Maine Senate
    Page 1 1 of 76 DOCUMENTS Bangor Daily News (Maine) September 25, 2018 Tuesday How Trump could help decide who wins control of the Maine Senate BYLINE: Michael Shepherd BDN Staff LENGTH: 1492 words Good morning from Augusta, where new sexual assault allegations against President Donald Trump's Su- preme Court nominee and confusion about the job status of the deputy attorney general got us thinking about where the president is most and least popular in Maine. We sorted the results of the 2016 presidential election between Trump, a Republican, and Democrat Hillary Clinton by Maine Senate district. It reveals some parallels to national polling showing that under Trump, Re- publicans are increasingly struggling in suburban areas that they have held in the past. Maine is lukewarm on Trump as a whole. A recent poll from Suffolk University found a 41 percent approval rating for the president here, which effectively matched past polls from Morning Consult that put the state near the middle of the pack nationally on Trump. The subtle divisions in his approval could be a key factor in elections here. Some of the most interesting ones come when thinking about control of the Maine Senate, which is controlled by Republicans who hold just a 18-17 lead on Democrats. The smallest switch could flip it. There are eight districts where Trump won a majority of votes. The one where he was most popular is held by a Democrat. Trump, who won the 2nd Congressional District but lost Maine at large to Clinton, only won majorities in eight of Maine's 35 Senate districts.

  • 2018 ELECTION RESULTS DISPATCH the INITIAL RESULTS November 7, 2018
    2018 ELECTION RESULTS DISPATCH THE INITIAL RESULTS November 7, 2018 Maine Democrats walked away from yesterday’s 2018 midterm elections controlling a state government trifecta - flipping the Maine Senate, increasing their margin in the House of Representatives, and picking up a governorship that is as symbolic to them as it is substantive. Their victorious evening comes after nearly a decade of elections where the GOP stayed on an impressive electoral offensive. No review of last night’s results could begin without the state’s marquee contest: the gubernatorial race between Democratic Attorney General Janet Mills and Republican Gorham businessman Shawn Moody. Unenrolled State Treasurer Terry Hayes failed to live up to expectations and may have even hindered Moody’s vote totals, as Mills was declared the winner before midnight. The final tally of the race will likely show Moody trailing by the high single-digits as Mills’ vote total currently sits at more than 52% of votes cast. The Democrats will now find their own champion in the Blaine House following Governor Paul LePage’s two terms as Maine’s Chief Executive. LePage reshaped Maine’s electoral and policy landscapes, and Democrats will view Mills’ victory as a referendum on the tenor and direction that defined those years. At the federal level, popular Unenrolled Sen. Angus King easily cruised to reelection in a three- way race with Republican Eric Brakey and Democrat Zak Ringelstein. U.S. Rep. Chellie Pingree also prevailed in Maine’s more southerly 1st Congressional District over Republican Mark Holbrook and Democratic-turned-Unenrolled state representative Marty Grohman.

  • RESEARCH TARGETS (As of 12/5/19)
    RESEARCH TARGETS (as of 12/5/19) We’ve set a really ambitious goal of 300 opposition research targets for the 2020 cycle. These are the first 40. 2020 SENATE RACES Republicans currently hold a 53-47 edge in the Senate and Democrats must pick up four seats for an outright majority. This is achievable. States included in this cohort: Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire and South Carolina. {TARGET: COREY LEWANDOWSKI} New Hampshire Note: Citizen Strong had tremendous success in New Hampshire in 2018: In the State House, we took out eleven of our GOP targets (including one race decided by six votes!!) – contributing to the Democrats taking the majority in that chamber. In the State Senate, three of our GOP targets were successfully defeated (one of these races being decided by fewer than 150 votes!) – contributing to the Democrats going from a 10-14 minority to a 14-10 majority. Right now, our New Hampshire focus is on the U.S. Senate race but we will select state legislative targets when those races take shape. Trump campaign operative and influence-peddler/unregistered lobbyist Corey Lewandowski has announced that he is considering a U.S. Senate run against Democratic incumbent Senator Jeanne Shaheen. Three Republicans have already declared that they are running and there are several others besides Lewandowski waiting in the wings. The scant polling shows Lewandowski leading the field but with ~50% of GOP voters undecided. Initial research tasks include: documenting Lewandowski’s ties to the state, documenting his educational

  • National War Council Election 2020 Preview
    2020 Election Preview 1 National War Council National War Council “Repair the Breach” 2020 Election Previews The President of the United States, two Governors, six U.S. Senators and twenty-five House of Representatives The 2020 election at local, state and federal levels may be the most important our nation has faced since the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. With the near dissolution of the former Democratic Party, and prevailing influence of the Liberal/Socialist wing, the results of the election and future of American could not be more conflicting. Do we rededicate our citizenry to the principles of the Founding Fathers, inherent values of our Judeo-Christian roots and unwavering support for the Constitution of the United States, Bill of Rights and national sovereignty? Or, as liberals demand, do we abandon nearly 225 years of morality, freedom from tyranny and government fiat that millions have sacrificed in numerous wars to maintain. Will we remain, “the home of the free and land of the brave?” This election, perhaps more than 2016, will determine the future of our nation. The analysis led by Luke Stockstill, and collaborated by many likeminded American Patriots, have reviewed candidates based on their conservative voting records indexed or scored by several organizations listed below. We also encourage apolitical individuals with expertise in the marketplace to seek public office as servant leaders. In an overview, the NWC believes in limited government, national sovereignty, conservative economic policies, an advanced technologically equipped military, shielding Judeo-Christian values (including protecting the unborn and opposing infanticide) and candidly supporting and defending the Constitution and the sovereign State of Israel.
