The Blue Wave Hit Everywhere

Reuters: “The Democratic wave covered huge swaths of the country. Republicans lost ground in 99% of the roughly 2,200 counties where most votes had been counted by Wednesday morning, according to tallies compiled by Reuters and USA Today, which are partnering this year to collect live election results. The party lost votes in rich and poor ​areas, in cities and in suburbs.”

“The losses in most places were dramatic: Across the counties tallied, Republicans’ share of the vote fell 8 percentage ​points compared with Trump’s share in 2024.”
