Summary
Democrats have officially retained their majority in the U.S. Senate, after incumbent Nevada Senator Catherine Cortez Masto held off a challenge from her Trump-endorsed Republican challenger, Adam Laxalt.
Meanwhile, the governor’s race in Arizona is still too close to call, though Democrat Katie Hobbs holds a slim lead over Republican Kari Lake — and it could be days before a winner is declared. We explain why the vote count is taking so long, and why it’s not unusual to wait for results in Arizona.
And in headlines: the first death sentence was handed down to an Iranian protester involved in demonstrations over Mahsa Amini’s death, President Biden is set to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping, and Ukrainian forces regained control of the city of Kherson.
