Democrat Derek Tran Unseats Republican Michelle Steel After Late Ballots

Joel B. Pollak 27 Nov 2024

Democrat Derek Tran unseated second-term Republican Rep. Michelle Steel in California’s 45th congressional district in Orange County on Wednesday, after late ballots allowed him to overcome her initial lead on Election Night.

The Associated Press reported:

    Democrat Derek Tran ousted Republican U.S. Rep. Michelle Steel in a Southern California House district Wednesday that was specifically drawn to give Asian Americans a stronger voice on Capitol Hill.

    Steel said in a statement that “like all journeys, this one is ending for a new one to begin.” When she captured the seat in 2020, Steel joined Washington state Democrat Marilyn Strickland and California Republican Young Kim as the first Korean-American women elected to Congress.

    …

    The contest is one of the last to be decided this year, with Republicans now holding 220 seats in the House, with Democrats at 214. The Associated Press has not declared a winner in California’s 13th District, where Democrat Adam Gray was leading Republican Rep. John Duarte by a couple of hundred votes.

These month-long "vote counts" are more than a disgrace.
But... it's California, folks.
Furgheddaboutit.

While the focus has been on the Presidential race and Republicans are busy congratulating themselves and preparing to run the country, the Dems are performing a Rope-A-Dope and stealing the majority of the House to stop cold the Trump agenda
