For the most part down ballot Democrats did better than the top of the ticket.

So people probably shouldn't overreact to the 2024 election. The Democratic Party brand isn't dead.

Of the battleground Senate races, Gallego overperformed the most. Followed by Rosen. Baldwin, Slotkin, and Casey slightly overperformed Harris, which helped Baldwin and Slotkin avoid near losses.

In the House, most Dems overperformed Harris in the competitive races. Pat Ryan the most.

This is why Dems won 4 out of 5 battleground Senate races, and held Republicans to a very narrow House majority even though Trump swept the battlegrounds.
