(NewsNation) — Democrat Peter Welch is the projected winner in the Vermont Senate race, according to NewsNation/Decision Desk HQ.
Welch has served as the U.S. representative for Vermont’s at-large congressional district since winning the seat in 2006 but now heads to the U.S. Senate to replace retiring Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT.).
Elsewhere, those running in Vermont’s governor’s race disagree about some of the diciest topics facing the nation, including inflation, abortion and immigration.
Yet unlike the U.S. Senate and U.S. House races, where voters were expected to vote in Democrats, experts say current Republican Gov. Phil Scott is likely to be re-elected in a move that will pit the state legislative and executive bodies against each other.
Vermont has just one seat up for election in the U.S. House of Representatives.
On Tuesday, 470 seats in the U.S. Congress — 35 Senate seats and all 435 House seats — were up for election. These elections will determine who has control over the two branches of Congress, and ultimately, who sets the agenda for President Joe Biden`s remaining years in office.
Early voting in Vermont started on Sept. 26. Polls for in-person voting open between 5-10 a.m., and close at 7 p.m. on Tuesday.
