Democrat Abigail Spanberger registered her name in history by becoming Virginia's first female governor. Polling stations across the state closed Tuesday evening, with precincts tabulating votes that confirmed her lead.

Abigail Spanberger won the governor's race in Virginia, and her victory comes after a fiercely contested battle against Republican Winsome Earle-Sears. Her campaign celebrated the result as a win for "unity, progress, and practical leadership."
