It remains unclear which party will control the House of Representatives, but Democrats did pick up a pair of seats in New York state. Republican Tom Barrett, meanwhile, flipped a seat in Michigan previously held by Democratic Congressmember Elissa Slotkin. In Delaware, Democrat Sarah McBride has been elected the first openly transgender congressmember in U.S. history, defeating Republican John Whalen. She has vowed to address criminal justice reform, abortion rights and gun violence.
