Janeese Lewis George Wins D.C. Mayor Race
Description
Kenyan McDuffie has conceded the D.C. mayor’s Democratic primary to Janeese Lewis George, who’s poised to face off in November’s general election after leading with nearly 53% of the vote. Lewis George, a 38-year-old democratic socialist council member, vows to defend D.C.’s autonomy against federal overreach — a stance that puts her directly at odds with President Trump, who has threatened to dismantle the city’s home rule. Her win would mark a historic shift, replacing long-serving Mayor Muriel Bowser and setting the stage for a high-stakes battle over local governance.
