Former President Barack Obama gave his endorsement to 94 gubernatorial, House and Senate Republican candidates on the ballot Tuesday and stumped for many of them in their home states.
Obama is 58-28 in races that have been called as of Nov. 14. Some of his endorsees were virtually guaranteed to win in the general election, like Democratic New York Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and unopposed Democratic Massachusetts Rep.-elect Ayanna Pressley.
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump endorsed 79 major candidates who were on the ballot Tuesday and had a 43-31 record as of Wednesday.
Below is a list of the candidates Obama endorsed and whether voters ultimately decided they were the right choice, according to Ballotpedia.
Governor
Obama endorsed 20 gubernatorial candidates, including two incumbents. He is 10-8 in the races that have been called.
Still up for grabs is the Georgia governor race between Trump-endorsed Brian Kemp and Obama-endorsed Stacey Abrams. Kemp is leading right now, but Abrams said she is going to make sure every single vote is counted. Also waiting to be finalized is Florida, where Democratic governor candidate Andrew Gillum backtracked his concession to Republican Ron DeSantis.
