M.A. Dworkin

     USVI - Stacey E. Plaskett became the first female Governor in the history of the USVI, along with her Lt. Governor running mate Milton Potter, the duo swept election night in the U.S. Virgin Islands with a landslide victory and a promise of massive change - a message that electrified the constituency of the U.S. Virgin Islands with a blaze of hope for a better future.

     Janelle Sarauw, former three-term Senator, scored a commanding victory with 77% of the vote in the Delegate to Congress race and won the right to represent the Territory in Washington, D.C. as the U.S. mainland Democrats took back control of the House and Senate , handing President Donald Trump and the Republicans a stunning defeat.
