Democrats gained a majority in Washington’s state Senate this week, securing control of all branches of governments in the three states along the West Coast.

With most mail ballots counted, Democratic prosecutor Manka Dhingra won the race in Washington’s 45th District over Republican Jinyoung Lee Englund, a former Capitol Hill staffer, after a campaign that cost both candidates and a swarm of outside groups nearly $9 million. The Associated Press called the race on Thursday afternoon.

Dhingra’s victory puts Democrats firmly in command of a state that had been trending bluer and will allow the party to pursue a progressive agenda that had been bottled up by Republicans.

Democrats have won at least 27 state legislative seats across the country since the start of the year, marking a turnaround after losing more than 1,000 legislative seats during the Obama years.
