If politics is about who gets to decide what matters, last night proved that women already have the answer.
Across the map, voters backed candidates who have consistently supported women’s rights, reproductive freedom, and policies that make everyday life more affordable. But it was young women, especially, who showed up and moved the needle. NBC Exit polls showed that 84 percent of women under 30 voted for Zohran Mamdani in New York City, 81 percent for Mikie Sherrill in New Jersey, and 82 percent for Abigail Spanberger in Virginia.
