The most expensive Senate battles these midterms
The US has been inundated with political advertising funded by Elon Musk, ordinary people, and cashed-up Political Action Committees, some of which do not disclose their donors.
Democrat Phil Weiser secured victory on Tuesday as the governor of Colorado, ousting his Republican opponent, Victor Marx. Weiser, who currently serves as the state's attorney general, has previously held positions in the administrations of Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. He will take over from term-limited Democratic Governor Jared Polis.
Marx, a Marine Corps veteran, established the organization All Things Possible Ministries. He once alleged that his abusive stepfather compelled him, at the age of seven, to commit murder. The Associated Press officially announced Weiser as the winner at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.
