I hold out hope for Harmer and Vidak at least. Those 2 seats are very close.

Bad night in CA for Republicans.

I don't think we'll know the answer to those two races until 30 days from now when they certify the vote.
Even then, the candidate(s) could ask for a recount.
United States Representative District 11
Jerry McNerney (D)	82,124 (47.5%)	--	--
David Harmer (R)	82,003 (47.5%)	--	--
David Christensen (AI)	 8,809  (5%)	--	--
Precincts Reporting	   613(100%)	--	--

United States Representative District 20
Andy Vidak (R)	       32,531 (51.5%)	--	--
Jim Costa (D)	       30,708 (48.5%)	--	--
Precincts Reporting	  564(100%)	--	--

BTW, most candidates lost because of turnout, IMO.

It looks like just fewer than 50% of registered voters cast a vote.

With all the hoopla since Arnold and his special elections, combined with the constant barrage of political advertising in this election,
I think some/much of the apathy was due to voter fatigue.
