With the city leaning Democratic, party nominees are nearly guaranteed general election wins, but the real drama lies in how candidates tackle federal interference, affordability, and public safety. Mayor Bowser’s exit opens the door for contenders like Janeese Lewis George, pushing for economic relief amid federal job cuts, and Kenyan McDuffie, advocating for public safety through policing and health initiatives. In Congress, Eleanor Holmes Norton’s retirement sparks a race centered on self-governance, with Brooke Pinto and Robert White Jr. leading the charge. And for the first time, ranked-choice voting is in play — potentially delaying results as D.C. watches closely to see how this new system unfolds.
