The answer is simple. Newly elected Delaware state Sen.

McBride, a Democrat, defeated Republican Steve Washington to win the seat that became open following the retirement of the longest-serving legislator in Delaware history, according to the Associated Press. While several other legislators around the country are transgender, she is the only state senator to be so, AP said. McBride, who is the Human Rights Campaign’s national press secretary, will become the highest-ranking openly transgender official in the U.S. once she is sworn into office in January. She ran partly to carry on the legacy of her late husband, Andrew Cray, an LGBT health advocate for the Center for American Progress, who died of cancer four days after their 2014 marriage, she told Elle.
