Fantastic Victories in Senate Elections

Last night was a great night for Council–endorsed Senate candidates. Of the 20 candidates we endorsed, 16 won, 3 lost and 1 race is still too close to call.

At the beginning of this election cycle political analysts thought Democrats would lose control of the Senate. But they were wrong.

Thanks to the hard work of supporters like you from across the country, they have expanded their majority by a few seats, and more victories are possible with the undecided races.

Thank you to all Council for a Livable World supporters who contributed so generously to make these election results possible!
