Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate from Pennsylvania, waves to supporters after addressing an election night party in Pittsburgh, Wednesday, Nov. 9, 2022.
As a long Tuesday night bled into a bleary Wednesday morning, it was still unclear whether Democrats or Republicans had won control of Congress in the pivotal 2022 midterms.
By the time the day ended, however, the red wave that so many pundits and politicos had predicted was looking like a red ripple. Typically, the party that doesn’t occupy the Oval Office tends to gain ground in the midterms because their supporters are highly motivated to vote against the president — and the president’s supporters aren’t particularly motivated to vote for more of the same. It usually takes extraordinary circumstances, such as the 9/11 attacks or the Cuban Missile Crisis, to make a president and his party popular enough to avoid a midterm drubbing.
At the same time, control of the Senate — where Democrats are defending the narrowest of majorities — remains up in the air pending final results in several too-close-to-call races.
