With 73% of the vote counted Tuesday night and a 15-point lead, the New York Times has projected Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis as the winner over Democratic challenger Charlie Crist.
Governor's offices in 36 of 50 states are on the ballot.
Former Trump press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the daughter of former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, has defeated Democratic nominee Chris Jones.
In Maryland, Democratic nominee Wes Moore has won back the governor's office after two terms of Republican Gov. Larry Hogan. Moore becomes Maryland's first black governor.
Republican Gov. Chris Sununu has won reelection in New Hampshire, as has Republican Gov. Kay Ivey in Alabama, Republican Gov. Bill Lee in Tennessee and Mike DeWine in Ohio.
In Illinois, incumbent Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker is the projected winner over Republican Darren Bailey.
President Biden predicted Democrats would "surprise the living devil out of a lot of people" in Tuesday's midterm elections, with about one-third of the Senate seats up for grabs and all 435 members of the House.
But polls indicate a red wave, or perhaps even a "red tsunami," with Republicans retaking the House and the Senate.
Democrats ran on an alleged "threat to democracy," but a CNN exit poll found 7 in 10 voters are unhappy with the state of the nation under President Biden and his Democratic Party.
A massive 75% of voters said the economy is "not so good" or "poor."

EDITOR’S NOTE: Leftwing billionaire George Soros bankrolls everything evil – most recently the 75 pro-criminal “Soros district attorneys” who have transformed America’s most dynamic cities into degraded, crime-infested hellscapes of skyrocketing violent crime. Soros also funds drug legalization, euthanasia, open borders, globalism, Black Lives Matter, “defunding the police,” devaluing America's currency and destroying her sovereignty. But why?
Whistleblower magazine reveals and explores the stunning truth: Soros, an atheist, literally says he’s “some kind of god,” obsessed with re-creating the world in his image. Here are a few actual quotes from Soros: “If truth be known, I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood…” “It is a sort of disease when you consider yourself some kind of god, the creator of everything, but I feel comfortable about it now since I began to live it out.” “You know, in my personal capacity I’m not actually a selfless philanthropic person. I’ve very much self-centered.” “I am kind of a nut who wants to have an impact.” “Next to my fantasies about being God, I also have very strong fantasies of being mad. … I have a lot of madness in my family. So far I have escaped it.”
Except he hasn’t “escaped it.” Not only is Soros totally mad, but he’s imposing his insanity on America. See Soros and the leftwing world he has created and funded as never before in “THE BILLIONAIRE WHO THINKS HE’S ‘GOD’: Why George Soros is obsessed with destroying America.”
