U.S. Rep. Rosa DeLauro has won the seat in 3rd Congressional District race in Milford and New Haven, according to the Associated Press.

DeLauro declared herself the winner Tuesday around 11 p.m.

Her Republican challenger, businesswoman Margaret Streicker, was late in the game, and she poured millions of her own cash into her campaign.

DeLauro has been in Congress since 1991.
