“Dismissing these as minor blue state losses is spin. Trump’s single-digit margin in the New Hampshire district might suggest that it’s a swing seat, but it’s not: Democrats had never won it before last night.”
They said that about this race in 2009:
“New York’s 23rd congressional district has historically been one of the most Republican districts in the United States. The district’s seat had been in Republican hands since 1873.”

Is anyone taking into account New Hampshire is changing every day with the influx of idiot Massachusetts voters?
More and more of these people move to NH and the state has been rapidly turning into Massachusetts North.
That was a farce of a race, to be sure. Voters aren’t even permitted to choose a nominee in a NY special election, local party chieftains do so. They’ve been notoriously bad at picking candidates. In this race, they chose left-wing RINO Dede “Scuzzyflavor” to hold the seat, which immediately offended the base, as there was next to no difference between her and the Democrat nominee. The Conservative Party put up a real choice and then the national GOP went in with orders to DESTROY the 3rd Party Conservative, including dispatching Newt Gingrich to help Scuzzyflavor.
When the base made it clear they were not having it and continued to back the Conservative, the GOP all but blew up the race, Scuzzy withdrew and endorsed the Democrat and the fallout and division allowed the Dem to win.
