New Hampshire GOP Sen. Kelly Ayotte conceded to Gov. Maggie Hassan on Wednesday evening. The Democratic nominee won by just 1,023 votes.

"This is not the outcome we wanted or worked so hard for. I'm sorry we didn't win this election for the values we share and the vision we hold for our country," the Democratic nominee told supporters.

Even with their best opportunities to gain seats in years, Democrats so far have only picked up deep blue Illinois. They narrowly hung on in Nevada, which was Republicans' only offensive opportunity.

The GOP is still favored to control the House. Donald Trump hasn't been the boon Democrats need. But some longtime GOP incumbents could go down, as Democrats stand to pick up a dozen or more seats.

Republicans are feeling the best they have this cycle about their chances of holding their majority, but even doing that requires several states to break their way on election night.

Republicans are expected to pick up control in at least one or two of the 12 gubernatorial races on the ballot, and they could even hit a modern-day record of states they control.

Democrats need to win districts like this suburban D.C. one in Virginia to cut into House Republicans' margin. And it will show just how much Republicans can separate themselves from Donald Trump.

Republicans control a record 67 out of 98 partisan state legislative chambers, and Democrats hope to take over between six and 12 chambers on Tuesday.

More women are likely to hold seats in Congress than ever before after this election. But despite being a majority of the electorate, they'll still make up only about 20 percent of the next Congress.

It's yet another puzzling decision by the law enforcement agency less than a week before Election Day, and FBI Director James Comey has a connection to this case as well.

Republicans are hoping "check and balance" arguments can help save their majority, but Democrats have multiple paths to the four or five seats they need to win control of the Senate.

Illinois Sen. Mark Kirk's racially charged comment about Democrat Tammy Duckworth has made his already slim chances of holding his seat that much harder.

Democrats need a wave election to win the 30 seats they need to flip the House. But even with Hillary Clinton gaining in polls, Republicans are likely to hold onto their House majority, albeit a slimmer one.

States like Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Missouri and North Carolina will be decisive, and they're all moving Democrats' way as Republicans are put further on the defensive by Donald Trump.

On the inaugural nightly Facebook Live from Trump Tower, Donald Trump's campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, said "unequivocally" that Trump will win despite badly trailing Hillary Clinton in polls.

Even with Donald Trump's scandals and a growing lead by Hillary Clinton nationwide, Democrats aren't yet seeing the wave they need to win back control of the House of Representatives.

The candidates dived into policy in the third presidential debate. But the most memorable moment was when the GOP nominee refused to pledge that he will accept the verdict of Election Day.

Obama said that the GOP nominee's claims that the election will be rigged threaten to undermine American democracy and show that he's not able to handle the pressures of the Oval Office.

The GOP nominee's wife said in an interview with CNN that she believes her husband when he denies allegations brought forward by multiple women that he groped or inappropriately kissed them.

In a wide-ranging interview, the vice president talked with NPR's Robert Siegel about Donald Trump's recent threats to jail Hillary Clinton, talk of a "rigged" election and more.
