Joe Biden Just Had the Best Midterms for a Democrat President in 24 Years

President Joe Biden has produced the Democrats best midterm election result since 1998, after an expected Republican "red wave" failed to materialize.

Counting continues in a number of seats, with control of both the Senate and House of Representatives up for grabs, though the GOP enjoys a sizable seat lead in the lower chamber.

Thus far the Democrats have won 48 Senate seats and the Republicans 49, with control of the chamber to be decided by outstanding contests in Arizona and Nevada, as well as a run-off in Georgia. Victory in two of the three states for either party will give them a Senate majority.

Notably Democrat John Fetterman beat Trump endorsed Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz in Pennsylvania, flipping the seat.
