Despite predictions of a red tsunami that would wipe out Democrat officeholders nationwide, the election shaped up to be one big, confusing mess, leaving pundits on both sides of the political aisle wondering what exactly was going through voters\u2019 minds at the ballot box.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Tuesday night gave the GOP some major victories in states and localities throughout the country. That the corporate press has chosen to ignore them shouldn\u2019t surprise you, considering their desperate desire to interpret the midterms as approval of Joe Biden\u2019s failing presidency. These GOP wins, however, signal that Democrats don\u2019t have the popular mandate they\u2019ll likely claim.<\/p>\n<h2>State Judicial Elections<\/h2>\n<p>In Ohio, Republicans ended up sweeping all three seats for the state Supreme Court, allowing conservatives to likely have a 4-3 majority in Ohio\u2019s highest judicial body. According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news5cleveland.com\/news\/election-2022\/republicans-sweep-ohio-supreme-court-race\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">local news outlet<\/a>, the races weren\u2019t particularly close, with all three GOP candidates trouncing their Democrat opponents by double digits. With major abortion-related legal cases on the horizon, Republican control of the body will prove vital in upholding the law and protecting innocent babies in the womb.<\/p>\n<p>Republican judicial candidates in North Carolina also enjoyed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsobserver.com\/news\/politics-government\/election\/article268185877.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">major victories<\/a> on Tuesday, with GOP nominees for the state Supreme Court flipping the two seats up for election this cycle. The projected wins will now give Republicans a 5-2 majority on the high court beginning next year. Earlier this year, the Democrat-controlled court <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/bench-memos\/north-carolina-supreme-courts-gerrymandered-reasoning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">struck down<\/a> two state constitutional amendments previously adopted by state voters in 2018, with the ruling coalition claiming, as National Review reported, that \u201cthe two houses of the state legislature that proposed them included districts that were racially gerrymandered.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But North Carolina Republicans\u2019 election dubs didn\u2019t stop there. In addition to the state Supreme Court, all four GOP judges running for seats on the North Carolina Court of Appeals are poised to defeat their Democrat opponents, marking a major win for the future integrity of the state\u2019s legal system.<\/p>\n<h2>State Boards of Education and School Boards<\/h2>\n<p>On the education front, Republicans fared very well in a number of key states across the country. In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kcur.org\/politics-elections-and-government\/2022-11-09\/conservatives-sweep-races-for-seats-on-kansas-state-board-of-education\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kansas<\/a>, four conservative candidates for the state\u2019s Board of Education are all projected to win their races, giving the body a 7-3 Republican majority. Similar trends were also seen in Texas, where more conservative candidates are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/news\/education\/2022\/11\/08\/state-board-of-education-races-will-determine-what-texas-kids-learn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">projected to win<\/a> their bids for seats on the state\u2019s education board. <\/p>\n<p>Conservative grassroots activists throughout the nation also saw success in electing \u201cparents first\u201d candidates to their local school boards. In Michigan, four candidates <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/1776ProjectPac\/status\/1590214804379029504?s=20&#038;t=JWllcsm8oqjE_wXlnR4NjQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">backed by the 1776 Project PAC<\/a> are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leaderpub.com\/2022\/11\/09\/election-2022-berrien-county-school-board-races\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">projected<\/a> to give conservatives control of the Brandywine Board of Education. The parental rights group also saw similar success in Maryland, where the group is <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/1776ProjectPac\/status\/1590182863785193472?s=20&#038;t=KozAlWjTmF1WjaAa1cA2-g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">forecasting<\/a> that three of their candidates will successfully flip the Carroll County school board from Democrat to Republican.<\/p>\n<p>Additional states that saw major conservative local school board victories on Tuesday include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailysignal.com\/2022\/11\/09\/desantis-endorsed-school-board-candidates-win-in-florida\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Florida<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/politics\/republican-candidates-narrowly-sweep-new-hanover-board-of-education-race\/ar-AA13Ub7m\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">North Carolina<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>J6 Committee Member Loses Reelection Bid<\/h2>\n<p>Virginia Democrat Congresswoman Elaine Luria, a sitting member of the House\u2019s infamous Jan. 6 Committee, got handed the pink slip by voters on Tuesday when she lost her reelection bid to Republican Jennifer Kiggans in the state\u2019s 2nd Congressional District. As <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/11\/08\/midterms-toss-4th-member-of-jan-6-committee-out-of-congress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a> by Federalist Western Correspondent Tristan Justice, Luria is one of four members of the committee not returning to Congress next year, along with Democrat Rep. Stephanie Murphy of Florida and GOP Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois.<\/p>\n<p>While Murphy and Kinzinger both opted not to run for reelection this cycle, Cheney suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of now Congresswoman-elect Harriet Hageman during Wyoming\u2019s Republican primaries earlier this year.<\/p>\n<h2>Leading House Dem Goes Down in Flames<\/h2>\n<p>Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) Chair Sean Patrick Maloney lost his reelection bid for New York\u2019s 17th Congressional District on Tuesday, marking a major loss for House Democrats. Defeated by Republican candidate Mike Lawler, Maloney\u2019s loss is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/democratic-congressional-campaign-committee-chair-maloney-concedes-historic-house-loss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reportedly<\/a> the first time a House campaign committee chair has lost since 1992.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/democratic-congressional-campaign-committee-chair-maloney-concedes-historic-house-loss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fox News<\/a>, the DCCC had poured roughly $600,000 into the race to save Maloney in the months leading up to Election Day. <\/p>\n<h2>State Legislatures<\/h2>\n<p>Thanks to the proactive leadership of Gov. Ron DeSantis, Florida\u2019s status as a solidly red state is no longer in doubt. In addition to DeSantis and Sen. Marco Rubio\u2019s sweeping victories Tuesday evening, Florida Republicans also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.islandernews.com\/news\/florida\/fl-republicans-gain-supermajorities-in-both-the-state-house-and-senate\/article_9e8cfaca-602e-11ed-ac60-33cee39fccbe.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">expanded<\/a> their numbers in the state legislature, where they will hold supermajorities in both the House and Senate starting next year.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans are also <a href=\"https:\/\/myfox8.com\/your-local-election-hq\/north-carolina-republicans-take-supermajority-in-state-senate-fall-short-in-of-super-status-in-state-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">projected<\/a> to increase their majorities in the North Carolina state legislature this year, giving the GOP a supermajority in the Senate and one vote shy of a supermajority in the House. The results are significant given that the state\u2019s Democrat Gov. Roy Cooper has regularly vetoed legislation backed by conservatives, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/capitalresearch.org\/article\/states-banning-zuck-bucks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">election integrity<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nc.gop\/cooper_vetoes_republicans_pro-life_legislation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pro-life<\/a> initiatives.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<p>\n  Shawn Fleetwood is a Staff Writer for The Federalist and a graduate of the University of Mary Washington.
