Alabama – Democrat Terri Sewell, a lawyer from Birmingham, has become the first Black woman to be elected to the U.S. House from Alabama.
Swell won the 7th district seat on Tuesday, defeating Republican businessman Don Chamberlain.
Sewell, who is from Selma, Ala., won with ease in the heavily Black and Democratic district, which stretches from downtown Birmingham into west and southwest Alabama.
She fills the seat left vacant by U.S. Rep. Artur Davis, who lost a bid to become Alabama’s first Black governor.
