MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin Sen. Tammy Baldwin has won a third term, delivering a victory for Democrats in the swing state that President-elect Donald Trump carried. Baldwin defeated Republican challenger Eric Hovde, a bank owner and real estate investor endorsed by Trump. Hovde has not conceded the race, which was within the 1-percentage point margin that would allow for him to seek a recount, based on unofficial results. The Associated Press called the race for Baldwin on Wednesday hours after absentee ballot results from Milwaukee put her over the top. In a statement before the AP called the race, Hovde didn’t concede or say whether he would request a recount.
