9. Despite the pleas of centrist consultants urging Dems to abandon trans people, it was those who targeted them who saw electoral fortunes collapse. For the first time in years, trans Americans can breathe and see evidence that the wave of anti-trans panic aimed at them may finally be receding.

8. These were only some of the many results that clearly broke for Dems and in favor of trans rights on Tuesday. In Pennsylvania, the Supreme Court maintained its 5-2 majority, with the Philadelphia Gay News reporting each justice that was retained had a record of protecting LGBTQ+ Pennsylvanians.

7. In the biggest news, New York City elected Zohran Mamdani as mayor—a rebuke to his opponents’ anti-trans rhetoric and a victory built on an unapologetically pro-trans platform. Just weeks ago, Mamdani released a two-minute pro-trans ad set to transgender artist SOPHIE’s “It’s OK to Cry."

6. Similar results followed in New Jersey, where Dem Mikie Sherrill won decisively. Her opponent, Jack Ciattarelli, ran a platform centered around the forced outing of trans students and opposition to gender-affirming care. His campaign pushed ads accusing Sherrill of “pushing LGBTQ+ on children."

3. The first major call of the night came in Virginia, where Democrat Abigail Spanberger quickly secured victory. By 11 p.m. Tuesday, she led Republican opponent Winsome Earle-Sears by 13 points, after Earle-Sears backers spent 57% of their ad money on anti-trans ads.

57% of all ad spending by Republicans in the Virginia governors race was on anti trans ads. Just an incredibly mismanaged campaign. Anti-trans politics are a losing issue.

2. After race after race was called, Dems won by wide margins in contests where anti-trans rhetoric dominated. For all the centrist consultants urging Democrats to “moderate” or sacrifice trans people, the results suggest the opposite: conviction, is what wins.
