Diversification Nation

It strikes me that after pushing divisive intolerance and hatred as a political platform this election cycle, the convicted felon in the White House has just maximized diversification.

The midterm elections have ushered in a groundbreaking roster of trailblazing leaders across federal and state levels which is downright breathtaking in scope. Below is a catalog of the diverse candidates who achieved historic, barrier-breaking firsts during this election cycle:

🏛️ U.S. Senate Firsts

• Abdul El-Sayed (D-MI): First Muslim American elected to the U.S. Senate in history.
  

• Chris Pappas (D-NH): First openly gay male senator elected to the U.S. Senate.

🇺🇸 Gubernatorial (State Governor) Firsts

• Keisha Lance Bottoms (D-GA): First Black woman elected governor in U.S. history, as well as the first Black person and woman to hold Georgia's top office.
  

• Deb Haaland (D-NM): First female Native American governor in U.S. history (Laguna Pueblo citizen).
  

• Gina Hinojosa (D-TX): First Latina governor of Texas.
  

• Byron Donalds (R-FL): First Black governor of Florida.
  

• Xavier Becerra (D-CA): First elected Latino governor of California since 1875.

This is a 21st century opportunity for the USA to wrest control from the fists of divisive goons.
