据Decision Desk HQ预测,民主党人丹·柯将赢得马萨诸塞州第6选区,接替众议员塞思·莫尔顿(民主党)。

Democrat Dan Koh is projected to win Massachusetts's 6th District, taking over for Rep. Seth Moulton (D), according to Decision Desk HQ.

柯此前曾在拜登白宫任职,今年早些时候在艰苦的初选中获胜后,普遍被认为将轻松胜选。他的对手是共和党人迈卡·琼斯,一名陆军退伍军人和律师。

Koh, who previously served in the Biden White House, was widely expected to sail to victory after winning a tough primary battle earlier this year. He faced off against Republican Micah Jones, an Army veteran and attorney.

DDHQ称,在马萨诸塞州东部时间晚上8点投票站关闭后不久,该民主党人以0%的投票数报告即被预测赢得该席位。

The Democrat was projected to win the seat with 0 percent of the vote reported shortly after polls closed at 8 p.m. EST in Massachusetts by DDHQ.

这位前拜登政府官员得到了上届政府多位高级民主党人的支持,包括前总统拜登、前副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯、前交通部长皮特·布蒂吉格和前劳工部长马蒂·沃尔什。柯曾担任沃尔什担任波士顿市长时的幕僚长。

The former Biden administration official had the support of a several high-profile Democrats from the last administration, including former President Biden, former Vice President Kamala Harris, former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and former Labor Secretary Marty Walsh. Koh served as chief of staff to Walsh when he was mayor of Boston.

2018年大选前,他曾竞选国会议员,但最终在民主党初选中败给了众议员洛丽·特拉汉(马萨诸塞州)。

Ahead of the 2018 election, he launched a bid for Congress but ultimately came up short in the Democratic primary against Rep. Lori Trahan (Mass.).

他后来加入拜登政府,再次担任沃尔什在劳工部的幕僚长,随后转到白宫,担任总统助理兼政府间事务办公室副主任。

He later joined the Biden administration, becoming Walsh's chief of staff again at the Labor Department and eventually moving over to the White House to serve as deputy assistant to the president and deputy director of the Office of Intergovernmental Affairs.

柯接替莫尔顿的席位,莫尔顿放弃连任,转而挑战参议员埃德·马基的民主党参议院初选,但未能击败这位两届参议员。

Koh takes over for Moulton, who left his forwent reelection to challenge Sen. Ed Markey in the Democratic Senate primary, failing to oust the two-term senator.
