In the Aurangabad Central Assembly constituency, a candidate needs at least 40% of the vote to win, with significant past vote-splitting allowing wins with as little as 32%. The upcoming election features a voter count of 366,000, with a strong anticipated competition between Shiv Sena and AIMIM. Meanwhile, in Orange County, preliminary results show incumbents leading in various races, with a local measure in Huntington Beach likely to pass. In Queens, Democratic incumbents are projected to retain their seats, although Assemblymember Stacey Pheffer Amato faces a tight race against Republican Tom Sullivan. Connecticut's incumbents appear to hold substantial leads, but the 5th Congressional District remains competitive. The outcomes in these races could influence the balance of power in Congress, particularly regarding committee leadership roles.
