The 2022 midterm election didn’t bring the red (Republican) wave that was predicted, but it did bring a rainbow wave, with at least 436 out LGBTQ+ candidates, almost all Democrats, winning their races; 100 more than in 2020. Out candidates had a 60 percent win rate, according to the LGBTQ Victory Fund.
