Abrams does not concede, says run to governor of Georgia heading to second round

The "pink tax" on Nevada's feminine hygiene products has been repealed, NBC News announced early Wednesday.

Voters were asked if tampons and sanitary napkins should be exempt from sales and use tax.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that opponents said the exemption could result in a loss of $ 900,000 to $ 1.3 million in tax revenue each year.

Fourteen other states do not subject feminine hygiene products to a sales tax, according to the Tax Foundation, an independent, non-profit tax policy.

Thank you very much for viewing our live blog during the election night. We have seen a lot of things happen tonight, but we are still waiting for results in several races.

Here are some of the best takeaways:

• NBC predicts Democrats won a majority in the House of Representatives. The Republicans will remain in control of the Senate and will have increased their majority of several seats.
• Driven by a suburban revolt against Trump, the Democrats regained the majority in the House, which provoked a series of upheavals. At midnight ET, the party had already won more than two dozen seats in the House, more than the 23 needed to win the majority, with many outstanding results on the West Coast.
• Republicans have successfully defended Senate seats in Texas and Tennessee, while getting seats in Indiana, Missouri and North Dakota.
• In the governorship races, the Democrats made significant gains, while Andrew Gillum in Florida was defeated and Stacey Abrams in Georgia was lagging behind. The Democrats won in Wisconsin – beating Trump's ally and former Republican presidential candidate, Scott Walker – as well as in Illinois, Minnesota, Colorado, and Nevada.
• There have been many historical firsts.
• A record number of women have been elected to the House of Representatives. Wednesday morning, at least 95 women had won seats, breaking the record of the current session of 84 women.

But there are still several races whose results are not yet determined, because they are still "too early to call" or "too close to call". These include:

Former Republican presidential candidate and Trump ally, Scott Walker, has been defeated in his bid for a third term as governor of Wisconsin.

NBC News said Democrat Tony Evers was the apparent winner at 3:30 am ET.

Speaking of his run, Walker last week said that "whether Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama or now Donald Trump," the first election in the president's mid-term is "difficult."

A NBC / Marist poll released Oct. 11 revealed that 45 percent of likely voters in Wisconsin approved Trump's performance, while 50 percent disagreed. Trump narrowly won the state in 2016.

Democratic representative Jacky Rosen defeated Republican Senator Dean Heller in the Nevada Senate race as part of the NBC News projects.

With 93% of the state's vote, Rosen, a congressman representing the 3rd district congressional state, led Heller between 50% and 45.8%.

Rosen's victory would mark the only participation of a Democratic nominee in a Senate seat held by Republicans in the mid-term elections of 2018.

Moments before NBC News called the race, Rosen called on Heller to concede. Rosen then declared victory in a speech in Las Vegas, telling enthusiastic supporters that she also liked him before committing to get to work.

Stacey Abrams, Democratic candidate for the governorship of Georgia, spoke to his supporters on Wednesday morning, telling them to wait for a second round against Republican Brian Kemp.

"Georgia still has a decision to make," said Abrams. "If I was not your first choice, or if you did not vote, you will have a chance to do an exercise."

NBC News says the race is too close to be followed. Under Georgian law, if no candidate wins more than 50% of the votes, the first two winners of the ballot qualify for the second round.

Although President Donald Trump has promised that the tax cuts passed last year would positively affect the personal finances of Americans, only 29% of voters say the changes helped them, according to the NBC News Exit poll. . Across the country, 45% of voters said the tax changes did not affect their personal finances, while 22% said their changes had a negative impact on their finances. .

The exit survey also shows that voters in high-income households are twice as likely as voters to say that changes in tax law have had a positive impact on their personal finances. Seventeen percent of electors with annual household incomes below $ 30,000 reported that their personal finances had benefited, compared with 34% of those with an annual household income of $ 100,000 or more.
