Delaware provided disappointed Democrats with a pair of bright spots in an otherwise grim night for the party.
Tuesday was historic, as the state elected Sarah McBride to the House, making her the first transgender member of Congress, and Lisa Blunt Rochester to the Senate, making her Delaware’s first African American and female senator.
The Associated Press called Blunt Rochester’s race shortly after polls closed, and she gave her victory speech minutes later, touching upon the noteworthy sorority she was joining that night.
