       Other notable races include Republican Sen. Mike Braun's bid for the governor's mansion against Jennifer McCormick, the state's former superintendent for public instruction and the Democratic candidate.

       Republican Rep. Jim Banks is running against Democratic candidate Valerie McCray to fill Braun's Senate seat.

       Counties are colored red or blue when the % expected vote reporting reaches a set threshold. This threshold varies by state and is based on patterns of past vote reporting and expectations about how the vote will report this year.
