Armstrong, a Louisville Metro councilwoman, won with 77% of the vote in Tuesday’s election, defeating Republican Misty Glin, media outlets reported.
She will succeed Morgan McGarvey, who was elected to Congress last November. McGarvey served 10 years in the state Senate, including four as the chamber’s top-ranking Democrat.
