Democrats have won control of the US Senate and House of Representatives in the midterm elections, according to projected results from BBC News.
The party made gains in states Trump won decisively two years ago, including Texas, Kansas, Ohio and South Carolina. Hakeem Jeffries, the top Democrat in the House, is poised to become Speaker. If confirmed by his colleagues, he would become the first black Speaker of the House.
Abdul El-Sayed won a Michigan Senate seat, becoming the first Muslim elected to the US Senate. The race was contentious. Trump called El-Sayed a "jihadist" without cited evidence, prompting accusations of Islamophobia. El-Sayed defeated Republican Mike Rogers.
Susan Collins lost her Maine Senate seat after 30 years in office to Democrat Troy Jackson, a logger. Collins said it had been the "honour of my life" to serve the state.
In Texas, Democrat Gina Hinojosa was elected governor, becoming the first Latina to hold that office. Democrat James Talarico won a US Senate seat in the state.
In Kansas, Democrat Adam Hamilton won a closely-fought Senate race, giving the state its first Democratic senator in nearly a century.
Democrat Keisha Lance Bottoms, the former mayor of Atlanta, won the Georgia governor's race, becoming the first black governor and first woman elected to the state's highest office. Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff won a second term in Georgia.
In Florida, Republican Byron Donalds became the state's first black governor following an endorsement from Trump. He will replace Ron DeSantis.
Trump told US media outlets he would accept the results and work with Democrats, though he acknowledged the US-Israel war affected the vote.
