The ballots are tallied and political pundits are spinning the election results. We add up the wins and losses for the record number of Native candidates who faced the voters. It’s possible America will be waking up to the first Native woman elected to Congress. Several other Native men and women are poised to make history in a number of state executive races. There are also concerns that some Native voters might be prevented from casting their ballots. We’ll get a round-up of key races and the down-ballot surprises. We also get analysis of what Election Day results might mean for the interests of Indian Country.
