Elizabeth Warren sailed to re-election for a third Senate term representing the Bay State. She defeated Republican challenger John Deaton, according to the Associated Press, which called the race as soon as polls closed.

BOSTON (AP) — Massachusetts Democrat Elizabeth Warren won a third term in the U.S. Senate on Tuesday. Warren fended off a challenge from Republican John Deaton, an attorney who moved to the state from Rhode Island earlier this year. Deaton tried to portray the former Harvard Law School professor as out of touch with ordinary Bay State residents.
