Last Tuesday, incumbent Democratic Senator Ed Market and incumbent Democratic Governor Maura Healey both easily won reelection, with Markey outrunning Healey by about four points. Here's how their performances differed by town.

While Markey performed generally better across the state, he did especially well relative to Healey in more working class areas, like Fall River/New Bedford and most of rural Central and Western Mass. Healey held up best in affluent areas, especially suburbs northwest of Boston.

Kathy Castor (D) has won reelection in FL-14, by about six points. DistrictCast had Castor winning by 5.6 in our final forecast.

For those monitoring IN-05: Here’s the Democratic primary, in which JD Ford prevailed.
In the concurrent Democratic primary, State Senator J.D. Ford prevailed over a crowded field, with Indiana National Guard combat medic Jackson Franklin finishing second and 2024 nominee for the district Deborah Pickett finishing third. (1/4)

Our final projections at DistrictCast show a blue wave:
FINAL DISTRICTCAST CONGRESSIONAL PROJECTIONS: Senate: 52 Dem - 48 GOP, 83% chance of Dem control House: 238 Dem - 197 GOP, 96% chance of Dem control

Some further information: Unlike the federal House and Senate forecasts, the state forecasts will not be updated daily. We’ll be doing one more update on Monday. With that update, we’ll also be releasing our gubernatorial forecasts for every other state up this year.
State forecasts are now live for eight states (AZ, GA, MI, NV, NC, PA, TX, WI) on DistrictCast! Here's a thread of overviews for each state:
