Democrat Derek Tran has defeated Republican incumbent Michelle Steel for a House seat representing California’s Orange County and Los Angeles, NBC News projects, after a contentious race that centered on the candidates’ Asian American identities and use of aggressive anti-China messaging.

Tran, an Army veteran, narrowly won in a race that came down to just a few hundred votes. His victory over Steel flips the 45th Congressional District blue, making it one of two districts to do so in a state that has largely shifted right.

RATS win when they can stretch the count out to a friggin month. The Vietnamese biatch didn’t win jack. That seat was stolen by the Vietnamese colonialists in a Vietnamese colony in America.

Somebody needs to ask what the hell took so long to count the ballots. Don’t the VC have a number system similar to ours?

I was an election official for sixteen years. The people counting the votes for three weeks can easily alter the election. But just to make sure I checked with the big tech search engines and all the headlines on my search for said that I was just plain wrong.

A search for "counting ballots for weeks" returned

It’s just coincidence that DemocRATS always win these late come from behind counts.

Louis C. Wyman (R-New Hampshire) was declared the victor of the US Senate contest in 1974 in New Hampshire by a narrow margin on Election Day (355 votes).

A first recount gave the election instead to John A. Durkin (D-New Hampshire) by ten votes, but a second recount swung the result back to Wyman by only two votes. The state of New Hampshire certified Wyman as the winner, but Durkin appealed to the Senate, which had a sixty-vote Democratic majority.

The Senate refused to seat Wyman while considering the matter. After a long and contentious debate in the Senate, with Republicans filibustering attempts by the Democratic majority to seat Durkin instead, a special election was held, with Durkin winning handily and becoming Senator.

Hey, the Demoncrats know when you count ballots that came in a week after the election you are just giving time for all the dead voters to make their voices heard.

Be advised, we have [many Tangos] in the wire. For the record, it’s my call. Expend all remaining pods on my pos! I say again, expend all remaining on my perimeter! It’s a lovely f’ing war. Bravo Six out.

Roger your last, Bravo Six. We copy. It’s your call.
Get ‘em in their holes down there. Hang tough, Bravo Six.
We are coming cocked for treetops. We’re hot to trot and packing snake and nape, but we’re bingo on fuel.

Allowing amnesty of over 2 million illegals in 1986.B1 Bob turned a safe conservative seat into a Marxist cinch. That is reality. False compassion led to destruction. I was furious at the time, the angriest I ever was at Reagan.

Well, they count and re-count until the numbers come up right - for THEM.

Are there more CA seats the Democrat never-ending ‘counting’ can steal?

Yes, in the 13th District. The Dimocrat just "inched ahead" of the Republican (incumbent) yesterday. Amazing how that works ...

All a recount does is verify the numbers match. You want an audit to see if the mail-in ballots have creases, if they’re the same paper as official ballots, if the signatures match the one on file, etc., etc., etc. And then public hangings of those responsible for injecting fraudulent ballots into the system. It’s the only way to curb it, demo-commies don’t understand anything else.

this has happened far too many times to be anything but election rigging. all these ‘count until you lose’ elections (by ballot harvesting or by rank choice or whatever) must be audited up the wazoo and outlawed legislatively, and then the cheaters must be put in jail.

federal election fraud and all forms of lawfare have to be tackled and reversed on Trump’s first day. the only way to do that is put people who commit/enable/abet the crimes in jail.

As I predicted, the rats would steal the Steel seat when the counting went past election night.

We need a national law that requires all votes be counted within 24 hours and none of this “curing” nonsense.

I acknowledged the recount problem in my post. I should have used the term ‘audit’. Question still stands does California state law force an audit (or is in just a recount?) to happen if winning margin is small enough. If not can it be requested and paid for by candidate\party\donors?

We have to turn out in huuuuge numbers for midterms. We need MAGA candidates.

The first is not necessarily true. The second is crucial, but can only happen if we show up in sufficient numbers to oust most of the GOPs incumbents with proven fighters for limited government and states' rights. The Primaries should be our focus, starting right now. The Midterms are meaningless if the Primaries don't produce better candidates.
