Democratic Ohio Rep. Kaptur narrowly wins re-election, keeping Republican majority at 218 seats
Fox News ^ | Nov 20, 2024 | By Andrew Mark Miller

Democratic Rep. Marcy Kaptur has won her 22nd term in Congress in northwest Ohio, defeating her Republican challenger and holding on to her seat in one of the most closely watched races in the country.

Kaptur defeated Ohio state Rep. Derek Merrin, according to the Associated Press, which called the race Wednesday at 1:02 p.m.

Kaptur was one of eight Democrats running in 2024 in a district that voted for Trump in 2020. Trump won the state of Ohio by 8 points in 2020.

Heading into the election, Republicans were optimistic they could flip the seat after redistricting following the 2020 census brought more Trump-friendly areas into the district.

Remember the old RAT motto! “Don’t let them stop you from counting until you finally win.”

The RATs are still counting votes in CA, and have suspiciously flip a couple of seats - they do it by ‘curing’ ballots

218 is not enough to hold the House for two years. Is that going to be the final number?

Don’t know what fox is using.

Decision Desk has it 220 to 213 with 2 races still undecided.

It's maddening. The RNC doesn't seem to care about losing House seats (via cheat), once the Presidency was decided - and Senators-elect don't think it important to be in DC to vote against Biden's last minute judge stuffing of leftists.

Our side sure knows how to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

DDHQ has called a couple of seats for the GOP that aren’t official yet. Alaska is one of them, and I think the other is in Arizona.

They rats will have the remaining 2 Ca seats by tomorrow. That means the majority will be decided by the AK runoff. While GOP was congratulating themselves the Dems were busy stealing House one by one two weeks after the election

Decision desk is not up to date. CA-13 R leads by 230+ votes now. Democrats are ‘over performing’ with late ballots. Decision Desk already called this one.
