Nearly a week has passed since the election, yet the apparent loser of one of the hottest contested races for Congress in Dallas-Fort Worth is refusing to concede defeat.
Democrat Candace Valenzuela, a former Carrollton-Farmers Branch school trustee, ran a strong underdog campaign for Congressional District 24, which includes much of Northeast Tarrant County and the suburban neighborhoods between Fort Worth and north Dallas. The district was pegged as one of several former GOP strongholds that Democrats hoped to win.
But, with 100% of precincts reporting, Valenzuela remains 4,489 votes behind Republican Beth Van Duyne, a former Irving mayor who was supported by many local leaders in the Congressional district.

Good luck to Beth, my new congressman. She'll be great in DC.
Note to mods: please change the author’s name to Gordon Dickson, it was an error on my part. Thanks!
This is my district the 24th. Cant let Valenzuela turn us into Venezuela. This area is getting a little more polluted with DemoRats.
I have met her and her husband several times.
I cannot blame her for fighting hard, but I believe she will eventually concede.
Dems cannot afford honest recanvassings and recounts and all of the clever thieves are tied up with stealing POTUS.
Mine as well here in Las Colinas.
I was wondering about my district thanks for the update
Wow, quite a few of us in this district. Go Freepers.
BTW, Candace conceded a couple of hours ago.
Yep
Give me about ten more days I have Covid.
Prayers up, amigo!
