Takeaways from US election night 2025
- On Tuesday Democrats dominated the first major Election Day since President Donald Trump returned to the White House, with Zohran Mamdani winning New York City's mayoralty and capturing Virginia and New Jersey governors' races.

- Mamdani's victory sparked a wave of racist backlash and 9/11 invocations, as Andy Ogles and other critics used social media to target him amid record turnout.
