David Harmer Can Win Today.

David Harmer, the Republican candidate for Congress in California's special election in their 10th congressional election, does have a chance of winning this election today. While running in a district which has not elected a Republican in decades, their last Congresswoman easily claimed victory with near 70% of the vote, and it is rated D+11, does not seem possible.

Then again, 2009 has not been a normal election year...

Dare we dream????

Well, I just voted for him.

All the stories about this election cycle have been all about NY 23 with CA 10 and afterthought with no further information.

In a nutshell how's it looking out there?

Harmer is a solid conservative who once worked at the Heritage Foundation and has published with the Cato Institute. A Harmer win would be a big upset, but it’s not at all inconceivable. A win by Harmer - or even a strong showing - might do more than anything in the East Coast races to send moderate Democrats fleeing the Pelosi/Obama agenda.

great, good job!

Now go get four of your friends and neighbors and drive them to the polls to vote for them. If they say the plan to vote for the Democrat, drive them to SFO

This website has been designated as a bogus trap for Conservatives...They post untrue articles, that have all the sound of authenticity.

Be aware.

Well, here’s hoping, but it sure looks like a long shot.

If an R pulls out this seat, democrats around the country will literally be crapping themselves. Personally I'd say the seat stays D, but with the smallest margin in a long long time.

I'd love to be wrong and see the R win, but an R winning in San Fran is like Pelosi having a clue.. not likely to happen.

It’s an opinion piece. Pretty hard to do a phony one of those.

As others have pointed out, this is not a reliable source.

I think Harmer could have won, with some support and funding from the national party (NRCC), or from some national conservative PACs.

Garamendi is likely to win, but it could be close. The Dems have pulled out everything for Garamendi in this district. He has had campaign appearances with Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. Also, the DCCC (and/or the DNC) have been running television ads for about the past week.

This is a district that usually goes 2 to 1 for the Democrat (it went 3 to 1 for Tauscher in 2002, 2 to 1 in every election since). If this is a 54/45 race, it represents major dissatisfaction with the Democrats. If it goes Republican, it could stop everything legislatively in the House and the Senate (many Dems would be scared to vote for the Pelosi/Reid/Obama agenda).

Harmer got a donation from me, and a week and a half of pushing in my sig and posts. But the NRCC dropped the ball on this race.

From the desk of cc2k:

Candidates I support: Doug Hoffman for Congress, NY 23rd (PayPal), David Harmer for Congress, CA 10th (website for info). Please, spread the word about these important special elections on November 3, 209: New York’s 23rd congressional district and California’s 10th congressional district.

From where I am, it’d be much easier to drive them to the county dump in Martinez. Driving to SFO is no picnic under the best of conditions!
