California State Rep. Vince Fong (R) won a special election on Tuesday to fill former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R) seat and finish his term, which runs until January.

Fong defeated his opponent, Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux (R) after receiving 39,825 votes, or 60.2 percent. Boudreaux received 26,317 votes, or 39.8 percent, according to election results from the Associated Press (AP).

The AP called the race at 11:17 p.m. on Tuesday.

Fong, who had previously served as a staffer under McCarthy issued a statement saying he was “filled with humility and gratitude” after the election results.

“I am filled with humility and gratitude tonight, as early results show that voters have overwhelmingly selected me to serve as their voice in Washington, D.C.,” Fong said in his statement.

Fong added, “With the campaign over, the real work now begins.”

Yes, but it wasn't like those voters were ignorant of who was running., and they chose McCarthy 2.0 over the alternative.
