Maps show election results for NYC mayor, New Jersey and Virginia governor's races and California's Prop 50

Updated on: November 5, 2025 / 9:17 AM EST / CBS News

Democratic candidates swept to victory in closely watched elections in New York City, New Jersey and Virginia on Tuesday night. Here is a look at how the results came in on a local level.

New York City mayor's race

Democrat Zohran Mamdani won the three-way race for New York City mayor, CBS News projects — defeating former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who ran as an independent, and Republican Curtis Sliwa.

Mamdani, 34, is a democratic socialist who promised rent freezes and free buses during his campaign. Cuomo was backed by several establishment Democrats — and even by President Trump. The race is all but certain to fuel debate over Democrats' future going into the midterms, a year after losing the presidency, the House and the Senate in 2024.

Mamdani held the lead in four of the city's five boroughs, with strong showings in Manhattan, Brooklyn and the Bronx and a closer margin in Queens, while Cuomo dominated in Staten Island.

New Jersey governor's race

In the New Jersey governor's race, Democratic Rep. Mikie Sherrill defeated Republican Jack Ciattarelli, CBS News projects.

Gov. Phil Murphy is serving his second term as governor, and Sherrill's victory means the governorship will be under Democratic control for three straight terms — the first time either party has held the governor's seat for three terms in a row since 1961.

Here are the live results as they're reported, county by county, in New Jersey.

Virginia governor's race

In Virginia, former Democratic Rep. Abigail Spanberger defeated Republican Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears to be Virginia's next governor, CBS News projected. Spanberger is making history as the first woman to serve in the role.

Running as a moderate, Spanberger flipped the governorship, which is currently held by Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin, who is prohibited from running for a consecutive term under state law. The race is widely seen as a referendum on President Trump, who did not endorse Earle-Sears.

California Prop 50

California voters have passed Proposition 50, approving a measure backed by Gov. Gavin Newsom and legislative Democrats that will enable them to redraw the state's congressional districts before the 2026 midterm elections.

The measure is intended to make several Republican-held congressional districts in California more favorable to Democrats in an effort to counter recent redistricting in Texas and other states that are led by Republicans.

Here are the live results on the "yes" or "no" votes on Prop 50.
