Gisele Fetterman, wife of Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, spoke to supporters at an election night party in Pittsburgh following her husband's projection to win the Democratic primary for Senate as he recovers from a stroke in the hospital.

She opened by "addressing the elephant in the room," which is that "my husband John Fetterman is not in the room," and said Fetterman would be "back on his feet in no time."

"This race we’re running is a race for the future," she said to a warm audience. "It’s a race for every job that has been lost, every factory that has been closed, every cost that has been rising, every worker that can’t keep up. It’s a race for a better Pennsylvania."

She also mentioned two issues her husband raises at almost every stop: a commitment to legalizing marijuana and to eliminating the Senate filibuster.

President Joe Biden didn’t endorse in the race, but the son of Pennsylvania celebrated John Fetterman's win in the state's Senate Democratic primary on Tuesday.

"John Fetterman understands that working class families in Pennsylvania and across the country have been dealt out for far too long. It’s time to deal them back in, and electing John to the United States Senate would be a big step forward for Pennsylvania’s working people," the president wrote.

In North Carolina’s 4th Congressional District, ABC News projects state Sen. Valerie Foushee will win the House Democratic primary.

Foushee defeated eight other candidates vying for the nomination, including "American Idol" star Clay Aiken. Aiken launched his bid in January, citing white supremacy and racism as reasons for his second congressional bid.

She also defeated Nida Allam, a 28-year-old county official who is Muslim and who got wide support from the Bernie Sanders-Elizabeth Warren wing of the party. Sanders on Tuesday called out national groups who spent a large amount of money trying to sink Allam’s candidacy.

The safely Democratic district has been held by Rep. David Price for nearly 35 years. Price announced in October 2021 that he is retiring at the end of this term.

Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, recovering in the hospital from a stroke and primary day surgery, tweeted a thank you to supporters Tuesday night after he was projected to win the Senate Democratic primary in Pennsylvania.

"The fate of our Democratic majority all comes down to Pennsylvania," tweeted.

The front-runner candidate who supports progressive policies but refuses the progressive label, Fetterman defeated Pennsylvania Rep. Conor Lamb, considered an establishment candidate, and state Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta, a progressive representing Philadelphia, in the primary race.

Fetterman voted from his hospital earlier Tuesday via an emergency absentee ballot. His wife, Gisele, is slated to speak later at his campaign party.
