Beshear campaign manager Eric Hyers: “Governor-Elect Beshear is already working on his transition so that he can best serve the people of Kentucky on day one. We hope that Matt Bevin honors the results of the recanvass, which will show he received fewer votes.” 🗳 — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Bevin’s campaign is formally requesting an official recanvass. Bevin Campaign Manager Davis Paine: “The people of Kentucky deserve a fair and honest election. With reports of irregularities, we are exercising the right to ensure that every lawful vote was counted.” — PolitiTweet.org

NYC became the latest & biggest, city to adopt ranked-choice voting. SF's ban on the sale of e-cigarettes will remain in place, despite a $19 million campaign by Juul. In WA, voters rejected a measure to reinstate affirmative action in college admissions. https://t.co/CYstNSPyrx — PolitiTweet.org

Today's 202 runs through the results of some fascinating down-ballot races -- and ballot initiatives -- that you probably haven't heard about yet, including in 2020 battlegrounds. Check out my roundup: https://t.co/CYstNSPyrx. — PolitiTweet.org

The incumbent mayor of Flint, Mich., was toppled last night by a state rep. Sheldon Neeley won by less than 300 votes. He says he'll make public the city’s financial registries again. And he'll require a financial audit within 90 days of taking office. https://t.co/CYstNSPyrx — PolitiTweet.org

In St. Louis Park, Minn., 23-year-old Nadia Mohamad became the first Muslim woman and first Somali elected to the city council. In Syracuse, N.Y., Chol Majok, a 34-year-old who fled violence in South Sudan, became the first refugee elected to public office in that college town. — PolitiTweet.org

Regina Romero will be the first woman and first Latina to serve as the mayor of Tucson. Meanwhile, more than 7 in 10 voters opposed an initiative that would have made the city Arizona’s only “sanctuary city.” https://t.co/YhH5cizkmm — PolitiTweet.org

In overshadowed news: Pete Buttigieg’s chief of staff will replace him as the mayor of South Bend. James Mueller beat his Republican opponent, a high school teacher, with about 65% of the vote. He'll take office in January. https://t.co/CYstNSPyrx — PolitiTweet.org

Even in red states that won’t be competitive in the presidential race, there were several additional proof points of the ongoing suburban revolt against Trump. Democrats won big upsets in three races in the suburbs north of Indianapolis in Hamilton County. https://t.co/CYstNSPyrx — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

One of the reasons Andy Beshear pulled off such a potential upset in Kentucky is because he overperformed in the suburbs, especially outside Cincinnati -- which suggests that Ohio could be more in play in 2020 than the D.C. conventional wisdom suggests. https://t.co/CYstNSPyrx — PolitiTweet.org

The returns in Bucks County are foreboding for Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, one of 3 remaining House Republicans who represents a district that Hillary Clinton carried in 2016. He won last year by three points, but Democrats see his district as a top pick-up opportunity in 2020. — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

Democrats wildly exceeded even their own high expectations in the collar counties around Philly, a particularly ominous sign for Trump. Democrats will hold all five seats on the Delaware County Council. Democrats captured the Bucks County Board for the first time since 1983. — PolitiTweet.org

Tim Hugo, the last remaining Republican legislator in the Northern Virginia suburbs outside D.C., was also ousted in a district that was solidly red 6 years ago. Despite an influx of big $$$ from banking, energy and pharmaceutical interests, Hugo still lost by 7 points. — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

Largely because of suburban voters who wanted to send a message to Trump, Dems won control of both chambers of the Virginia General Assembly. In the Richmond suburbs, Democrat Ghazala Hashmi toppled a GOP senator to become the first Muslim woman elected to the state legislature. — PolitiTweet.org

James Hohmann @jameshohmann

Kentucky won’t be a battleground in the presidential race, but Pennsylvania and Virginia will. And the results of Tuesday’s off-year elections in those states worry top GOP strategists more than Democrats claiming victory over Bevin. The 202 goes deep: https://t.co/CYstNSPyrx — PolitiTweet.org
