Nov. 4 (UPI) -- Voters across the country are heading to the polls Tuesday on an Election Day that will see new governors in New Jersey and Virginia, and a redesigned congressional map in California.
Virginia is set to vote in its first female governor as Republican Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears and former Rep. Abigail Spanberger, a Democrat, go head-to-head.
Democrats are hoping a win by Spanberger will further push the state blue ahead of next year's midterm elections, ABC News reported.
"It is only in Virginia and New Jersey that we have statewide elections where we can prove to the rest of the country -- when given, when we have an opportunity to make a change at home in our state, we will take it," Spanberger said at a recent campaign rally.
