Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Some bright spots tonight. CA voters tried to even the redirecting playing field and some important wins for Democrats in NJ and VA. Long way to go, but it’s a start.
