Schumer was tweeting in response to results announced in Nevada where incumbent Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto beat Republican Adam Laxalt.
"The American people rejected the anti-democratic, authoritarian, nasty, and divisive direction the MAGA Republicans wanted to take our country," Schumer tweeted.
