Tuesday was Election Day in the United States, with the states of Kentucky and Mississippi voting for their next governor and many other states voting for their own different political representatives. Some other main ones are that Ohio is voting to amend the state's constitution, Virginia's vote will decide which party controls the state House and Senate, Rhode Island will be voting for their representative in the House, and Pennsylvania will be voting on the state Supreme Court seat up for grabs. These small elections may decide the 2024 presidential election, and the party (Democrat or Republican) that controls the House or Senate could change in many of other states. The ballots are now in, and the results will be out soon!
Fact of the Day: The US's smallest state capital is Montpelier, Vermont, with only 7,500 residents.
Quote of the Day: It's better to be unique than the best. Being the best makes you the number one but being unique makes you the only one. (Unknown)
