Indiana Election Results

Senator Joe Donnelly, a centrist Democrat, lost his seat to Mike Braun, a Republican businessman who ran as an unabashed supporter of President Trump and pledged to “drain the swamp” and protect gun rights.

Mr. Donnelly was one of several red-state Democrats facing tough re-election campaigns, and his race was seen as vital for Democrats to win if they were to have any chance of seizing the majority in the Senate.
