Leandro Ruschel stated that, although the final count had not yet been released in the United States, the Republican Party had suffered a significant defeat. According to the betting on Polymarket he cited, the Democrats would regain the House and reach 55 seats in the Senate; Ruschel estimated net Republican losses of about 45 seats in the House and eight in the Senate. He highlighted that Texas had elected a Democrat to the Senate for the first time since 1988. According to Ruschel, the candidate had said that God was “non-binary,” and the state was also electing a Democratic governor. In Florida, he wrote, Republican Byron Donalds won by just 1.4 points, after Ron DeSantis had won by 19 points four years earlier. Ruschel compared the results to the 2010 midterm elections, when, according to him, the Democrats lost 63 seats in the House and six in the Senate, but Barack Obama maintained control of the Senate. He assessed that the results reflected more of a protest against Donald Trump than support for the radicalism of the Democratic left and stated that the far-left had been the big winner of the elections. #EleiçõesEUA #PartidoDemocrata #PartidoRepublicano (translated)
