Rep Susie Lee, incumbent Democrat in NV03, eviscerates pathetic transphobe and serial loser Marty O’Donnell (composer of the music in Halo) electorally (60-40 win) and then dunks on him with the Halo theme.

"Miss Boebert? Ma'am? I don't think he has 5,000 votes in that pocket. Please exit the theater."
Overnight, the AP called #NVgov for Aaron Ford (D) over incumbent Joe Lombardo (R). It's the fifth gubernatorial seat Democrats have flipped thus far.

The AP has called the Nevada secretary of state race for Democrats. Incumbent Cisco Aguilar is crushing election denier Jim Marchant 57–39%.
AP hasn't made an official call, but we're calling it for @abdulelsayed.bsky.social. Elon spent $9,179,784 on the most vile, Islamophobic, red-baiting, trans-bashing stew of monstrous hate. But 2-time loser Mike Rogers is going back to Florida. Oh and @rephaleystevens.bsky.social? Eat shit.
How much money did Elon waste trying to unseat Kristen McDonald Rivet in MI-08? $257,738 That's enough to buy a nice little house in the district. Sadly Tom Smith might need help buying a home since voters didn't give him the job Elon wanted to buy for him.
