Janeese Lewis George Wins D.C. Mayor Race

Janeese Lewis George Wins D.C. Mayor Race

Published 1 day, 18 hours ago
Description

Kenyan McDuffie has conceded the D.C. mayor’s Democratic primary to Janeese Lewis George, who narrowly edged past the 50% threshold and is poised to become the city’s next mayor — and its first democratic socialist. Lewis George, a council member and vocal critic of federal overreach, vows to resist Trump-era policies, including ending local police cooperation with ICE and challenging federal control over D.C. affairs. Her win, alongside Robert White Jr.’s congressional primary victory, signals a bold new direction for the city’s leadership — one prepared to confront the Trump administration head-on.
