Washington state voters cast ballots Tuesday to elect federal and state leaders, including U.S. Senators, representatives, and local officials. The AP Decision Team will track key races and data points as results are tallied. Voters in 12 congressional districts and 10 state legislative districts are participating. Two U.S. Senate races are closely watched, with candidates vying for control of the chamber. In the House, 10 seats are up for grabs, with competitive races in districts across the state. State-level races include governor, lieutenant governor, and several legislative seats. Early voting saw a 15% increase compared to the last midterm election. The AP will monitor turnout, candidate performance, and voter sentiment as results come in. This election marks a pivotal moment for state and national politics, with implications for policy and governance. The outcome could influence the balance of power in both chambers of Congress.
