Mike Garcia reacted on Fox & Friends on Thursday to becoming the first Republican to flip a Democratic House seat in California in more than two decades saying, There's an awakening here in California.
Democrat Christy Smith conceded the special election race for California's 25th Congressional District to Garcia on Wednesday, marking the first time Republicans will retake a Democratic-held congressional seat in the state since 1998.
Garcia, a former Navy combat pilot, had a 12-point edge over Smith, a state assemblywoman, as of late Tuesday night in the contest for the swing-district seat vacated by Katie Hill after her resignation.

One thing for sure just like the election and 16 that shocked the world ; when the Republican wins by enough margin that the Democrats dont say hold on we got to count some more balllots ! you know it was very decisive
Whats very important in the electorate right now is women - as they have been since the 19th amendment was passed at the start of the 20th century
Women have been taught over and over by the Democrats to just vote for the woman no matter what because women are smarter or whatever
Without a large majority in the women vote , Democrats can never win anything ! because men are much smarter than the fall for their bull crap
That being said this election he had a red blooded patriotic former military man and family man who really never get anything in politics until this
Running against one of your liberal women state legislature types that had been doling out the money for years and years and years and we won in California
Now of course this is the desert area Palmdale Riverside etc. but nonetheless it is still Southern California and it was a decisive win maybe 12 points
Now to go along with the anarchy we have tyranny and perfect examples of Sam Francis's anarcho-tyranny. Criminals let out of jail so law abiding people can be put in jail. Criminals roaming the streets which law abiding citizens are prohibited from walking on.
I hope so, as diverse as CA is there should be more Republican seats.
I keep hearing the argument that the reason why Republicans lose over and over is because of the illegal alien vote
All of the Hispanic immigrants Ive worked with years of contractor all Republicans so we just need to win them over with our ideas
Many many many illegal aliens come to this country kiss the ground love this country worked very hard love their family and our religious and are born and raise to be Republicans they just get the media bull crap
That being said especially in Central and South America theres a lot a communist Marxist Sandinista LA RAZA types that are just like your leftISTS in this country very dangerous
Isn’t this seat up for a vote again in November? Might be a temporary victory. California is going to take a lot of work to get turned around.
Is there any chance of that being declared illegal?
It is wrong to project this result (and the one in Wisconsin) into the general election to be held in six months. A lot can happen in that time. However, the results probably suggest that if the election were held today, the Democrats would suffer a big beat-down across the country. Right now, the momentum is on our side.
If he can win again in November, it’s really a big __ckin’ deal, as Biden would say. It’s kind of a big deal anyway. The GOP needs all the spine it can find. This should give them some courage.
The Democrats have banned the word “illegal”:

Hang your head in shame, citizen! :-(
[Its a 12 point lead. They cant cheat if its not close.]

I left in 1979.
12 points. In light of today’s politics and it’s California to boot...he slaughtered her.
The seat wasn’t flipped. It was taken back.
I visited CA in 2008 to see a dying friend. Not been back since.
I stopped going many years ago. I think 2005 was my last time there, also to visit a dying friend. I consider it to be East Germany. It’s remarkable this site exists there.
56 - 44?
[56 - 44?]
Please be aware that they are counting until the end of the day Friday. I HOPE they cannot find enough ballots to cheat Smith into the seat.
You were faster than I....
All immigrants who did not do so according to the law and jumped the border is an ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT!
How's that!!!
