Chapter 2: What significant election victories occurred recently?
Democrats scored key victories in yesterday's elections. These are some of the first major votes since President Trump took office. In New York City, state lawmaker Zoran Mamdani won election as mayor. Two women, both former congresswomen, won gubernatorial elections. Abigail Spanberger in Virginia and Mikey Sherrill in New Jersey.
Mike Hayes of member station WNYC was at Cheryl's New Jersey victory party.
Cheryl will be just the second woman governor in the state's history and the first from her party. It's also the first time in over 60 years that either party has won three consecutive governor's terms in New Jersey. Shortly before 10 p.m., Cheryl took the stage.
I just got a call from Jack Cittarelli, and I want to recognize him for stepping up.
She vowed to be a governor for all New Jerseyans, whether they voted for her or not. For NPR News, I'm Mike Hayes in East Brunswick.
This is day 36 of the federal government shutdown. The Transportation Department is warning it may close some U.S. airspace if the government shutdown extends into next week. NPR's Joel Rose reports such a drastic move could lead to extensive delays for travelers.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says it is safe to fly and that the Federal Aviation Administration will restrict the number of planes in the air if there aren't enough air traffic controllers to manage the system safely. But Duffy warns that there could be severe delays if the shutdown drags on another week and controllers miss a second full paycheck.
you will see mass chaos, you will see mass flight delays, you'll see mass cancellations, and you may see us close certain parts of the airspace because we just cannot manage it.
Air traffic controllers are required to work without pay during the government shutdown. That's hurting morale, and many have called in sick, leading to staffing shortages and extensive delays at airports across the country. Joel Rose, NPR News, Washington.
