Tara Gholshan and Ellen Nilsen YouTube have been covering these midterm elections

and Congress for Vox this entire year.

And it's finally here.

The elections tomorrow.

Let's go through everything we can expect starting with the Senate where I'm told Tara

that the Republicans are looking like they might hold on to it.

Yeah.

So the Republicans are really on the offensive in the Senate.

There are 35 seats up for reelection and 26 of them are held by Democrats and of that

26, 10 of those are Democrats who hold seats in red states like states that Trump won

in 2016.

So there's a lot of ground that Democrats have to defend here.

And which races are the most contested and up for grabs?

She is running against Josh Hawley, who's the Attorney General in the state.

She's always kind of gotten lucky in the past.
