President Trump on Tuesday signaled what he saw as a positive sign of things to come and lauded an early GOP win in Guam by Republican gubernatorial candidate Tony Ada.
“Guam, which has always been considered strongly Democrat, just had an early call for a REPUBLICAN Victory in the top spot, Governor — Congratulations to Tony Ada!” Mr. Trump said on social media.
“Also, the Republicans have the Majority in the State Senate. Wow, hopefully that’s an indication for things to come!”

Mr. Ada, who ran against Democrat Therese Terlaje, was first elected to the Guam Legislature in a 2010 special election to fill a vacancy. He was later elected minority whip and then minority leader. He has been vice speaker since Jan. 6, 2025.
The territory’s current governor, Democrat Lou Leon Guerrero, is term-limited. Guam, a U.S. territory in the western Pacific, is the largest and southernmost island in the Mariana Islands chain.
