The answer here is pretty simple: There was a substantial undervote for GOP senate candidates relative to Trump in MI/PA/WI, but not for Harris. Chart in next tweet. I will add AZ/NV as they count more... 1/ Ok this is *extremely* basic & based on D-R votes, not actual undervote in each race (will need state returns from SOS for that). These are NYT #s.

In MI/PA/WI, GOP senate got 3-4% fewer raw votes than Trump. Dem senate had lower drop-off; Baldwin got more votes than Harris. 2/ Image
