Candidates backed by President Trump were outperforming expectations in two closely watched congressional special elections on Tuesday night, as former Navy combat pilot Mike Garcia inched closer to retaking Democrat Katie Hill's California seat and Republican Tom Tiffany easily prevailed in Wisconsin.
Garcia grabbed a substantial early lead Tuesday in the fight for the open U.S. House seat north of Los Angeles in the swing 25th District, giving California Republicans a chance to claim a Democratic-held congressional seat in the state for the first time since 1998. With 76 percent of precincts reporting, Garcia was leading Democrat Christy Smith 55.9 percent to 44.1 percent.
Trump lost the district by 6 percentage points in 2016. He went out of his way to promote Garcia in recent weeks as strong on guns and immigration, and some Democrats had hoped he would be a liability in the race. Former President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and other high-profile Democrats all lined up behind Smith.

I thought it was a three-way race for her seat.
And this:
“Meanwhile, Trump himself put up historic numbers in the Nebraska presidential primary. With less than half the vote in, Trump has already doubled his 2016 total in the state — leading GOP Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel to tout what she called surging “enthusiasm” for the president’s reelection.”
They're making it sound like it;'s close.
Those figures are not close.
If it's a DEM trailing in California, it's close.
Don’t worry. They’ll “find” enough ballots to hold the seat. We need to keep harvesting votes for another week or two. And have we checked all our trunks, closets and storage rooms? You must be a novice at stealing elections.
Democrat campaign worker: “And then, after 99% of the polls were in, suddenly I found this room with over 650,000 ballots, all voting for the Democrat. With 170% participation among registered Democrats.”
The Dems are not taking this seat.
And you can take that to the bank.
That’s what I’m afraid of.
When that happens, the people of LA need to rise up and demand accountability and an honest election.
The dems only get away with this because nobody pushes back.
They won’t waste that on this election, not important enough and not close enough.
Indeed!
From your lips to God’s ears!
Garcia wins 56-44. He he he
Christy Smith
(Party Preference: DEM) 62,456 44.0%
Mike Garcia (Party Preference: REP) 79,543 56.0%

BALLOT HARVESTING hasn;t started yet! VOTE FRAUD!! Christy Smith might as well start picking out her drapes for her Congressional office.
I thought it was a throuple, give or take a few.
I agree and posted this same thought on a different thread.
If it were close or if this were the general election, where a single race is lost in the clutter, they'd cheat.
This election is too naked and the difference is too large to easily cheat.
The demonRATs will wait for 5 months and then mail-vote-bomb Garcia out of office.
Rematch in six months in both cases.
Who will the Dmocrats blame when the House goes back to the Republicans in 2020?
