The People have spoken

 So much for DHS voter intimidation.

The largest turnout for a mayor's race for over half a century in New York.

From Fox, the two Governor's races:

Flipped from GOP.

Virginia also elected Ghazala Hashmi lieutenant governor.  She's the first Muslim woman elected to statewide office in the US.

And a big one: Prop 50 in California. Voters overwhelming chose to fight Texas gerrymandering with California gerrymandering.

Pennsylvanians voted overwhelmingly to keep three Democratic Supreme Court judges who sought reelection, retaining a Democratic majority (5-2) on the bench.

UPDATE 05:00 pm:

In my 35 years as an election lawyer, I’ve seen good election nights and bad ones. Last night was a very good one — for both Democrats and democracy. Democrats won everything, everywhere, all at once.

They captured two governorships — in New Jersey and Virginia — in commanding fashion. They won every statewide race in Virginia and gained 13 seats in the Virginia House of Delegates.

In Pennsylvania, three Democrats facing retention elections on the state Supreme Court easily prevailed, solidifying a pro-voting majority on the court for the foreseeable future. In New York City, not only did the Democratic nominee win, but the Republican candidate came in a distant third with less than 10% of the vote.

In Georgia, two Democrats flipped seats on the statewide Public Service Commission — marking the first statewide Democratic victory in a non-federal race in nearly two decades. In Mississippi, Democrats broke the Republican supermajority in the state legislature.

On the democracy front, the wins were even bigger. Gov. Gavin Newsom’s redistricting ballot measure passed by nearly 30 points. Meanwhile, Republicans’ effort to use the referendum process to impose voter ID in Maine failed by a similar margin.

Republicans sued to block California’s Prop 50, which voters passed Tuesday. The lawsuit argues the state violated the 14th and 15th Amendments by drawing congressional districts that “favor Hispanic voters.”

Texas' redistricting to favor whites is not a problem for them.  In case you were wondering.

UPDATE 11/06/2025:

It's a great start.  Now follow through.
