In the end McCollum walked off with about 85% of the vote.

Meanwhile, the Omar/Samuels race was treated as no contest at all but Omar only got just a hair over 50%.

Based on her remark last night: " 'Our victory is a testament to how much our district believes in (me)" she apparently doesn't get that her narrow win might be reason to reconnect with her district and figure out how she can strengthen her relationship with it.
