The few good news for the Democrats.

Well, that sucks. The American people have decided to prefer a convicted felon to a woman. Republicans also regained control of the Senate, while Democrats also regained control of the Senate May If I still flip the House of Representatives, things look bleak. But there were some small victories for the Liberals in Tuesday's election:

• In North Carolina, Democrat Josh Stein won the race for governor, defeating “black Nazi” Mark Robinson. Stein will be the first Jewish governor in the state's history. Democrats also won every major executive branch election in the state.

• Democrat Sarah McBride won her race to represent Delaware in the House of Representatives, becoming the first openly transgender person elected to Congress.

• While Florida's abortion rights ballot measure failed, most states that decided on abortion rights changes voted in favor. Even in Missouri, the first state to ban abortions Roe v. Wade fell, residents voted for an amendment to enshrine abortion rights.

• Democrat Angela Alsobrooks defeated Republican Larry Hogan in the Maryland Senate race, meaning there will be two black women in the Senate for the first time ever. Democrat Lisa Blunt Rochester also won her race in Delaware, where she will be the first woman and the first Black American to represent the state in the Senate. Together, they double the number of black women ever elected to the chamber.

• New Jersey elected Democrat Andy Kim to the Senate; He will be the first Korean American to serve as a senator, filling the seat vacated by Bob Menendez. He is also the first Asian American senator elected by the state.

• Fani Willis, the Fulton County district attorney who is prosecuting Trump over his attempts to overturn the 2020 election, was reelected.

• Democrat Monique Worrell won back her district attorney seat in Florida, where Gov. Ron DeSantis previously ousted her.
