Historic firsts

So much history has been made! Let's start with the record number of women -- at least 96 -- projected to win seats in the House. The historic total caps off a campaign season in the wake of President Trump's election that was defined in large part by female activism. But that's not all:
--  Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar will be the first Muslim women in Congress.
-- Sharice Davids and Deb Haaland will become the first Native American women elected to Congress.
-- Marsha Blackburn will be the first female senator to represent Tennessee.
-- Jared Polis of Colorado will become the nation's first openly gay man elected governor.
-- Kristi Noem will become the first female governor in South Dakota.
-- Veronica Escobar and Sylvia Garcia will be the first Hispanic women from Texas elected to Congress.
-- Arizona will have its first female senator, but as of this morning, we still don't know if it will be Republican Martha McSally or Democrat Kyrsten Sinema.
