Martin Heinrich wins open U.S Senate seat

Democrat Martin Heinrich won New Mexico's open U.S. Senate seat Tuesday, defeating Republican Heather Wilson with strong support from Hispanic and female voters. 

Heinrich carried the vote-rich Albuquerque area, which is home to a third of the state's electorate, and he picked up solid margins in heavily Democratic and Hispanic areas in northern New Mexico.
 Heinrich's victory ensures Democrats will hang on to the Senate seat being vacated by Jeff Bingaman, who is retiring after 30 years.
