2018 Election results for Pennsylvania, New Jersey

(AP/WTXF) -- Pennsylvania and New Jersey voters were featured in the middle of the national political picture as they cast ballots in Tuesday's election,

Pennsylvania elected a state record four women to the U.S. House on Tuesday as Democrats smashed the state's all-male congressional delegation and picked up three seats in the chamber.

Meanwhile, Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf and Democratic U.S. Sen. Bob Casey each won another term and Democrats narrowed Republican majorities in the state Legislature.

The Democrats' victories came amid a backlash against President Donald Trump and Pennsylvania's highest midterm turnout in nearly 25 years.

In the U.S. House, Mary Gay Scanlon, Madeleine Dean, Susan Wild and Chrissy Houlahan stand to become the first women from Pennsylvania to serve full terms in Congress since 2014.

Three Republican incumbents survived tight races, making Pennsylvania's U.S. House delegation a 9-9 tie and giving the state's Democrats their most seats in eight years.

Democratic-leaning New Jersey has turned a deeper shade of blue.

in New Jersey, Democrats pick uped at least three House seats from Republican control. Incumbent Sen. Bob Menendez also fended off a well-funded GOP challenger.

The Democratic pickups mean the party will control at least 10 of the state's 12 House districts and both Senate seats. Democrats also have a majority in the state Legislature and hold the governorship -- both of which were not on the ballot Tuesday.

Republican incumbent Rep. Leonard Lance in New Jersey's 7th District was ousted by Tom Malinowski, a former State Department official under Barack Obama.
