Trump Voters Drive a Rise in Ticket Splitting
Briefly

In the competitive races critical to his party's hopes of regaining control of the Senate, Trump's picks all fell short, helping keep control in Democratic hands.
Across five states with competitive Senate races, an average of 7 percent of those who plan to support Trump also intend to vote for a Democrat in their Senate race.
In Arizona, the highest percentage of Trump voters, 10 percent, say they will split their tickets, showing significant potential for Democratic candidates.
Many Senate races feature long-serving Democratic senators who have maintained a moderate course, despite the support for Trump's politics in their states.
