Democrat Sarah McBride has won the race for her state’s first Senate district. This means she will become the first openly transgender state senator in US history.

McBride’s district is a solidly Democratic one, while Delaware at large is a reliably Democratic state. She joins several other trans leaders at a federal, national, and state level.
