One blip in what is looking like a good night for Republicans: New Mexico Democrat Tom Udall has successfully fended off Republican challenger Allen Weh to hold onto his Senate seat. Udall was elected to his first term in 2008. Weh, a retired Marine colonel, was considered by some a sleeper candidate, and while he did close the gap with Udall in the months leading up to the election, the most recent New Mexico polling showed Udall up by seven points on average.
