The final printout of voting results for seats in the Hawaii Senate and House of Representatives showed that Democrats will maintain their solid control over both chambers.

But the minority party of Republicans picked up a seat in the Senate and kept their numbers steady in the House.

Most of the attention Tuesday night was on open seats, where no incumbents were running.

In a shift from earlier results, Democrat Matt LoPresti lost to Republican Kurt Fevella 48 percent to 47.1 percent in a race for an open state Senate seat.

LoPresti currently serves in the House.

District 19 represents Ewa Beach, Ocean Pointe, Ewa by Gentry, Iroquois Point and a portion of Ewa Villages. It was vacated by Will Espero, who unsuccessfully ran for Hawaii lieutenant governor.

Democrat Marilyn Lee, a former lawmaker who was unseated in 2012 by Republican Beth Fukumoto, was behind Republican Val Okimoto 51.3 percent to 42.4 percent in the District 36 seat covering Mililani Mauka and Mililani. Fukumoto later switched parties and left the seat to pursue unsuccessfully a congressional seat, which opened the seat this year.

In the 2018 Legislature, Democrats held all 25 Senate seats and 46 of the 51 House seats. Many of the races were settled in Aug. 11 the primary.

Based on the latest results Tuesday, Republicans are set to pick up one Senate seat with Fevella’s likely win. The party will probably keep five House seats; Republican Sai Timoteo, who wanted to succeed House Minority Leader Andria Tupola (who left her seat to run unsuccessfully for governor), was disqualified before the primary.

Here is how all other legislative races shaped up:
