This week's round of elections proved to be a landmark for LGBT candidates. At least 62 won races for municipal and state office on Tuesday, with some outcomes still to be determined.
"This has been the most successful nonfederal election year in the Victory Fund's history," said Chuck Wolfe, the group's president and CEO. "More candidates were endorsed and more candidates won than ever before. But just as important is where they won. Some of these are true breakthrough victories that have the potential to change the political landscape in some communities."
