There are many races still too close to call, but I want to give you a broad look at how the HSLF-backed candidates are doing tonight in the House and Senate contests. So far, 248 candidates endorsed by HSLF have won tonight, and ten have been defeated. We have lost some good friends in Congress, but we've gained some new allies as well.

Our win rate in congressional races at this point in the evening is 96%, with a major win in the presidential race, a statewide ballot measure victory in Massachusetts, and another on the horizon in California. It is shaping up to be a tremendous night for animals from coast to coast.
