Sen. Martin Heinrich (D) will win reelection in the deep-blue state of New Mexico, Decision Desk HQ projects.

Though the state is a reliable Democratic bastion in the Southwest, Heinrich’s reelection bid had garnered more attention than usual this cycle because his challenger, Nella Domenici, is the daughter of the late Sen. Pete Domenici (R-N.M.).

Domenici, a hedge fund executive, had also brought in notable fundraising hauls throughout the year, raising eyebrows among political observers.

Nonetheless, Heinrich was widely expected to prevail on Tuesday. He defeated his Republican opponent in 2018 by 20 points, and an Emerson College Polling/The Hill survey released in August found him leading Domenici by double digits.

Ukraine shows off new 'rocket-drone' in bid to boost long-range strikes
Ukraine showed off a new locally-produced "rocket-drone" on Friday which it said could fly 700 km (430 miles) - more than twice the longest range attributed to missiles supplied by Western allies. The unmanned craft, called "Peklo" - which means hell in Ukrainian - is the second such "rocket drone" unveiled by Kyiv as it tries to increase its ability to strike deep into Russia, which invaded 33 months ago. The drones could reach speeds of 700 kph, a representative from Ukraine's state arms manufacturer Ukroboronprom told reporters at a ceremony where they were officially handed over to the armed forces.
