Democrats pulled off nearly a complete sweep in Tuesday’s major contests, notching big wins in races largely seen as a referendum on President Donald Trump’s return to the White House. Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani is the projected winner, according to the AP, in the New York mayor’s race. He topped former governor Andrew M. Cuomo, who ran as an independent, and Republican Curtis Sliwa. Virginia elected Democrat Abigail Spanberger as the state’s first female governor, while voters in New Jersey are projected to elect Democrat Mikie Sherrill as their state’s next executive.
