New York City Councilmember Ritchie Torres made history by winning his race to become the first openly gay, Afro-Latino person elected to Congress.

In a heavily Democratic district, Torres competed against 12 candidates in the Democratic primary.

Tonight, a new era begins for the South Bronx, Torres said in a statement.&nbsp;

"It is the honour of a lifetime to represent a borough filled with essential workers who have risked their lives so that New York City could live. The Bronx is essential, and the vibrant, loving and talented people who live here have shown time and again their power, fortune and perseverance. The Bronx is the heartbeat of New York City, he said.

Torres, who identified himself as an Afro-Latino, has served in the City Council since 2013. He defeated nearly a dozen other Democrats in the June primary after Republican Jose Serrano announced his retirement earlier this year.

Torres is expected to be joined by another Black gay man, Mondaire Jones, in the US House of Representatives as results were pending in the race to replace retiring Republican Nita Lowey from Westchester County. The seat is expected to go to 33-year-old Jones, a Harvard Law School graduate and former Westchester County attorney, who was leading Republican Maureen McArdle Schulman as of midnight, the report said.

US election 2020: Ritchie Torres — First openly gay, Afro-Latino member of Congress

Today is a stressful time for almost everyone in the US as today is being projected as one of the most important days in political history. However, it is especially more stressful for the two candidates:&nbsp;the&nbsp;current President&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/donald-trump">Donald Trump</a>&nbsp;and the former Vice President and&nbsp;Democratic nominee&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/joe-biden">Joe Biden</a>. In these stressful times, things re ought&nbsp;to get mixed up here or there...or in Biden's case, people ought to get mixed up.

During one of his public appearances, Biden ended up giving a laughable moment to the audiences, and especially his opposition leaders, as he seemed to confuse his granddaughter with his son. The confusion happened during&nbsp;an appearance in&nbsp;Philadelphia.

Joe Biden often mentions his son Beau Biden in his campaigns, fondly remembering one or the other incident of his beloved son whom he lost in 2015. On the day of elections, too, he briefly mentioned his son, and while introducing his granddaughter, Beau's daughter, Joe Biden mistakingly introduced her as&nbsp;"This is my son Beau Biden who a lot of you helped elect to the senate in Delaware."

However, he was quick enough to retrace his words and immediately corrected himself saying, "This is my granddaughter Natalie".&nbsp;

While many people noticed and understood the confusion and the sensitivity behind the confusion, Trump's campaign was quick enough to publish the video on Twitter with the caption "WATCH: Joe Biden mixes up his granddaughters".

The debates are undoubtedly important for deciding the fate of Biden and Trump, but, over the years we have seen that winning these presidential face-off doesn't always translate into winning the election.&nbsp;

In 2016, Hillary Clinton was the winner of all three debates, but she ultimately lost the election to Trump.&nbsp;

Similarly, Democrat John Kerry performed better than George W. Bush in 2004 debates but was unable to win the election.&nbsp;

John Koch, a professor specialised in debates at Vanderbilt University, describes these debates as important not because they influence the voters, but as "it's the only time we see both candidates together and the two major parties ostensibly debating, outside of Congress", as quoted by news agency AFP.

Also, when the face-off will begin, there will be rehearsed performances by Biden and Trump, which makes these events less relevant, but still significant.&nbsp;

A Pew Research study found that only 10 per cent of voters finalised their voting choices after or during the debates in 2016.&nbsp;
