With Abigail Spanberger winning the governorship, Virginia will have a Democratic trifecta! And Democratic candidates flipped thirteen (13) seats in the House of Delegates, for a new total of 64 seats held by Democrats!

All States Win candidates won their House of Delegate races: eight (8) challengers flipped their seats and seven (7) incumbents held their blue seats. What about the three fantastic candidates whom we South Bay volunteers supported?

• Josh Thomas, Marine veteran and lawyer, held onto one of the state's most competitive seats. In 2023, Josh won with 51.7%; this year he got 58.3%!
• Leslie Mehta, civil rights lawyer, unseated an anti-abortionist with 51.6% (1,590 votes).
• Lily Franklin, former math teacher, defeated a right-wing extremist with 51.2%.

How did we support our candidates? Early Money totals: $21K for Josh, $36K for Leslie, $27K for Lily.

We held 34 phonebanks and made 63,375 calls, identifying undecided voters, recruiting volunteers, helping people make voting plans — and wrote 10,600 postcards!

Many, many thanks to everyone! Lily, Leslie and Josh won their races!

• In Mississippi, 3 SD-supported candidates flipped their seats, ending the red supermajority.
• In Minnesota, the SD-supported candidate won a state Senate seat.
• Pennsylvania: all 3 Democratic Supreme Court justices reelected.
• Georgia: two Democrats won statewide non-federal elections for the first time in ~20 years.
• Connecticut: Democrats took control of 28 towns.
• Bucks County, PA: first Democratic DA since the 1800s — part of a complete countywide sweep.
• Nationwide: all 31 Moms for Liberty candidates lost.
