Democrats flipped seven seats in the Senate, while two races — Alaska and Mississippi — are still too early to call.

• Momentous sweep: Democrats have flipped control of both the House and Senate in a resounding and historic victory, CNN projects. They capitalized on President Donald Trump’s historic unpopularity to win significant power to check his final two years in office.

• What we’re still watching: Two Senate races — in Alaska and Mississippi — are still too early to call. The Mississippi candidates are separated by just 43 votes. And several dozen House races have still not been projected.

• Trump’s response: The president told The New York Times he’ll accept the results, and in an interview with Fox News, he said he didn’t see the GOP losses “as a hit on me.”

• Democratic Senate wins: Abdul El-Sayed will in Michigan, CNN projects, becoming the first Muslim senator in US history. Democrats flipped seven other Senate seats — in Ohio, Iowa, South Carolina, Maine, North Carolina, Kansas and Texas.

In a momentous election, Democrats have gained control of Congress, projected to flip at least seven Senate seats and 27 Congressional Districts.

It is the first time in nearly a century that Kansas has elected a Democrat to Senate. Here’s a look at the last time a Democrat won in other flipped states:

• Iowa: Democrats had not won a Senate seat in Iowa since former Sen. Tom Harkin was reelected in 2008. After Harkin retired in 2015, Republican Sen. Joni Ernst took his seat, sitting in Congress alongside Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley until now.
• Kansas: The last time a Democrat won a Senate seat in Kansas was in 1932 — some 94 years ago. Since Kansas became a state in 1861, only three Democrats have represented it in the Senate.
• Maine: A Democrat last won a Senate seat in Maine nearly 40 years ago, in 1988, when Sen. George J. Mitchell won his election an a landslide.
• North Carolina: The last time a Democrat was elected to the US Senate from North Carolina was in 2008, when Kay Hagan won against incumbent Elizabeth Dole.
• Ohio: Democratic former Sen. Sherrod Brown is projected to return to the US Senate, two years after losing his reelection battle to Republican Sen. Bernie Moreno. Prior to these elections, Brown last won a Senate seat in 2018.
• South Carolina: It has been almost 30 years since a Democrat was elected to the Senate in South Carolina. The last time this happened was in 1998, when Sen. Fritz Hollings won his Senate seat.
• Texas: The last Democrat elected to the Senate from Texas was Lloyd Bentsen in 1988. James Talarico, the Democrat projected to win Texas’ Senate race this year, was born the year after Bentsen was reelected.
