US Elections 2020: Indian-origin Democratic congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi wins polls
Washington: Indian-origin Democratic congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi scripted an easy victory over Preston Nelson as he was re-elected to the US House of Representatives for the third consecutive term on Wednesday.
He defeated his Libertarian Party opposition to return to the House for yet another term since being elected for the first time in 2016.
47-year-old Krishnamoorthi was born in New Delhi.
Targeting US President Donald Trump, he had tweeted on Wednesday morning: "As polls close and we wait for results to roll in, I want to remind everybody that official results take weeks – even in ordinary times! – and that nobody (including Pres. Trump) can change the final outcome just by declaring himself the winner tonight."
