WAITING GAME: Key races still not called in Midterm Elections

Published

All-important 2022 Midterm Elections will determine the balance of power in Washington D.C.

Following Tuesday’s midterm elections across America, there are still four Senate races yet to be called in Arizona, Nevada, Alaska, and Georgia.

While Alaska will likely stay in Republican hands as votes move through the state’s ranked-choice voting system— Arizona and Nevada are continuing to count mail-in ballots.

Meanwhile, the race for Georgia’s Senate seat is headed to a runoff election on December 6.

Out of the candidates former President Donald Trump backed in the 2022 midterm elections–174 won and only 9 lost.

However, Democrats and Republicans are framing the results very differently.

“You know, Tuesday was a good day for America,” President Joe Biden said. “A good day for democracy and it was a strong night for Democrats.”

“It’s worth pausing and reflecting what was accomplished last night,” Senator Ted Cruz, a Republican from Texas said.

“Number one, Nancy Pelosi lost her job; we’ve taken the gavel out of Nancy Pelosi hands; we’re going to have a Republican majority in the House, we’re going to have Republican chairman of every committee, we’re going to have leadership in the house that that that has moved out of the hands of other crazy Democrats,” he said.

Election officials are now saying that tabulations in key races will continue over the weekend and won’t be announced until counting is completed next week.

Trump urges Putin to cease attacks on Ukraine following deadly missile strike on Kyiv, killing 12 and injuring 90.

In Short

A missile and drone attack on Kyiv killed 12 and injured 90, prompting Trump to urge Putin for a peace deal amid escalating tensions.

Ukraine seeks an unconditional cease-fire, but ongoing strikes and unacceptable Russian conditions raise concerns over future peace negotiations.

In a recent missile and drone attack on Kyiv, 12 individuals were killed and 90 injured, marking the most severe air assault this year.

U.S. President Trump responded by urging Russian President Putin to halt attacks and pursue a peace agreement. He expressed concern over the loss of life, highlighting that 5,000 soldiers perish weekly.

The attack involved over 200 missiles and drones and targeted critical Ukrainian industries. Trump’s frustration has increased as peace talks stagnate, with him also critiquing Ukrainian President Zelensky for dismissing a peace proposal that would legally recognise Russian control over Crimea.

Peace deadline

Despite Trump’s previous reluctance to criticise Putin, the attack shifted his stance. He has signaled a deadline for both Russia and Ukraine to reach a peace deal while the U.S. contemplates the extent of its involvement in negotiations.

Ukraine seeks an unconditional cease-fire, but Russia’s conditions remain unacceptable to Kyiv. A recent U.S. proposal would allow Russia to retain substantial territory and would limit Ukraine’s NATO aspirations.

Zelensky accused Russian forces of terrorism, attacking civilian areas and inciting widespread destruction, while Trump acknowledged the challenges of restoring Crimea to Ukraine.

The situation continues to escalate, with ongoing strikes on civilian infrastructure, drawing international attention and condemnation. As rescue workers clear debris from the latest attack, uncertainties remain about the future of peace talks and the safety of Ukrainian citizens.
