Democrat Porter flips GOP House seat in Southern California

Democrat Katie Porter captured a Republican-held U.S. House seat Thursday in the heart of what once was Southern California's Reagan country, extending a rout of the state's GOP House delegation that might not be over.

Porter's upset in Orange County is a sign of changing times in a region once known nationally as a GOP fortress. The coastal county southeast of Los Angeles was home to President Richard Nixon, and President Ronald Reagan once likened it to a Republican heaven. Porter, a law professor and protege of Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren, defeated Republican Rep. Mimi Walters, who was re-elected in a walkover just two years ago in the 45th District. The latest update to the vote count gave Porter 51 percent and a 6,203-vote lead.

Will the last Republican who leaves CA turn off the lights. The district went for Clinton and Harris in 2016. The area was as was all of Orange County a GOP stronghold but Democrats with Quisling RINOs insured that population is being replaced.

There are so many good people in CA who could really help us out if they finally cut bait with this third world state and moved to battleground states. CA is only going to get worse. There is nothing left to salvage.

I moved to Reno. Didn’t do any good. I’m back in Ca. Was it worth driving back there to vote for Heller? You must be joking.

Cindy Sheehan (yes, that Cindy Sheehan) came close to knocking off Nancy Pelosi a few years back. Even Lincoln only won one term in the House.

[MountainWalker]

Ok, your 1 vote didn’t make the difference so Trump might as well resign and we give the Democrats full control of the government for good.

[FlingWingFlyer]

The ho didn’t “flip” sh*t. It’s just another seat stolen through overwhelming voter fraud. Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining.

IF there is an election anywhere in this county, the demodummies will find a way to “win”, legally (probably not) or by cheating (definitely)

It's probably a sign of being overrun with illegals.

The upside of this is that every whacko leftist Socialist idea is now going to be put on the fast track to a veto-proof majority in Sacramento.

Watching all the wheels come off the Golden State is going to serve as a stark lesson to voters everywhere else.

[ZULU]

BINGO!

[ZULU]

ALL THE RACES THEY STOLE.

[Presbyterian Reporter]

Are there any Republican CongressCritters left in CA?

[2CAVTrooper]

IMO, every seat that we lost was through massive voter fraud.

[GAHeel]

we were declared the winner in GA 7. But there may be a recount

[willyd]

There are 29 races so far where Republicans were winning on election night and now Dems are ahead...

in 2000-2015 there only 27 recounts with only 3 races actually switching leads because of recounts.

Now we have 29 in one year! All going dem... this a coup-de-tat
