One seat changed partisan control as John Fetterman (D) defeated Mehmet Oz (R) and six other candidates in Pennsylvania. Incumbent Senator Pat Toomey (R) did not seek re-election. Sen. Raphael Warnock (D) and Herschel Walker (R) advanced to a Dec. 6 runoff after being the top two vote-getters in the general election for U.S. Senate in Georgia.

Heading into the election, Republicans had majorities on 26 state supreme courts, Democrats controlled 17, and control of the nine remaining courts was either split between parties or unclear.

After the election, Democrats will hold majorities on 16 courts, Republicans will hold majorities on 27, and the remaining nine courts’ majorities will either be split between parties or unclear. (Texas and Oklahoma both have two courts of last resort.)
- State legislative elections were held for seats in 88 chambers in 46 states. Heading into the election, Republicans held majorities in 62 state legislative chambers, Democrats held majorities in 36, and the Alaska House was under a power-sharing agreement.

Voters approved ballot measures establishing a state constitutional right to abortion in California, Michigan, and Vermont. In Kentucky, voters rejected a constitutional amendment that would have declared that the Kentucky Constitution cannot be interpreted to establish a right to abortion. In Montana, voters rejected LR-131, which would have enacted a law called the Born-Alive Infant Protection Act, which would have required medical care to be provided to infants born alive by classifying a born-alive infant as "a legal person for all purposes under the laws of the state ... entitled to the protections of the laws, including the right to appropriate and reasonable medical care and treatment."
- This year, five states decided on marijuana legalization ballot measures. Heading into November, marijuana was legal in 19 states and D.C. Of those 19 states, 13 and D.C. had legalized marijuana through ballot measures. Voters in Maryland and Missouri approved legalization ballot measures. Voters in Arkansas, North Dakota, and South Dakota rejected their measures.
- Voters in six states decided on ballot measures to change voting-related policies. Topics included ranked-choice voting, early voting, absentee voting, voter identification, and more.
- The results of notable ballot measures are displayed in the tables below. A full breakdown of statewide ballot measure election results can be found here.

How we decide when to call an election
- See also: How we decide when to call an election
Ballotpedia uses two standard criteria when deciding whether to project the outcome of an election:
1.) Type of office
2.) Battleground status
For the first criterion, we make a distinction between top-ballot offices and down-ballot offices. Top-ballot offices include U.S. president, U.S. Congress, and state governor. Down-ballot offices include all other elected state, local, and territorial positions.
For the second criterion, we make a distinction between battleground elections and standard elections. We define a battleground election as one that is particularly competitive or that may have a meaningful effect on the balance of power in government. All other elections receive the standard status.
Based on the above criteria, we take the following approaches when deciding whether to project an election outcome:
- Top-ballot office, battleground status: Ballotpedia will not project a winner for these elections until there is a consensus projection made by a pool of three national news outlets (FOX, NBC, and NYT). If some but not all of these outlets have called the election, or if all of the outlets have called the election but there is not a consensus on the outcome, Ballotpedia will refrain from projecting the election winner but will publish the calls made by each individual outlet until a consensus has been reached. Vote totals will be updated for these elections on a daily basis until the outcome has been projected, and then again once results have been certified.
- Top-ballot office, standard status: Ballotpedia will not project a winner for these elections until there is a consensus projection made by a pool of three national news outlets (FOX, NBC, and NYT). If some but not all of these outlets have called the election, or if all of the outlets have called the election but there is not a consensus on the outcome, Ballotpedia will refrain from projecting the election winner. Vote totals will be updated for these elections on a daily basis until the outcome has been projected, and then again once results have been certified.
- Down-ballot office, battleground status: Ballotpedia will not project a winner for these elections until there is a consensus projection made by two credible media outlets covering the election. If one but not both of these outlets have called the election, or if both outlets have called the election but there is not a consensus on the outcome, Ballotpedia will refrain from projecting the election winner but will publish the calls made by each individual outlet until a consensus has been reached. Vote totals will be updated for these elections once when the election has been called and again when the results have been certified.
- Down-ballot office, standard status: Ballotpedia will not project a winner for these elections until a credible media outlet covering the election has called it or at least 95% of precincts are fully reporting and the candidate has a winning margin of at least 5 percentage points or at least 95% of ballots are counted and the candidate has a winning margin of at least 5 percentage points. If an election does not meet either criterion, Ballotpedia will refrain from projecting its winner until certified results are released. Otherwise, vote totals will be updated for these elections once when the election has been called and again when the results have been certified.
For top-ballot offices, we selected three prominent news outlets that freely released their election calls in the 2018 midterm elections. Note that some outlets not listed, such as the Associated Press, only release their full list of election projections to paid partners.
If an election is uncontested, the candidate running unopposed will be marked as the projected winner following the election instead of being subjected to this criteria.
In the event that there is no consensus but certified results have been published by the relevant government election office, Ballotpedia will call the election in accordance with the certified results. However, if a candidate officially requests a recount or if the results are disputed in court, Ballotpedia will note above the vote totals that the election's outcome is pending the outcome of the lawsuit or recount.
Although the District of Columbia and the U.S. territories elect non-voting officials to the U.S. Congress, those offices are treated by this policy as down-ballot.
This policy is subject to change if new information emerges. Click here to read more about Ballotpedia's editorial approach to election coverage.
