Republican Mike Braun defeated incumbent Democrat Joe Donnelly in the race for Indiana’s U.S. Senate seat on Tuesday. But in October, Donnelly voted against Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, which Braun’s campaign claimed gave him a surge of support. Braun, a businessman and former state representative, made Mexico a huge part of the campaign. Indiana Democrats even sent staffers to a Braun campaign event to wave Chinese flags. Donnelly has opposed Republican efforts to repeal or undermine parts of the Affordable Care Act.
