Fortunately, Keri Lake lost her bid to be governor of AZ, the last chance for a Trump clone in 2024 to decertify election results in one of the swing states that elected Biden.
Oh oh, 5 more Republicans have been called winners in the House, including Calvert over Rollins, so they are just one win away from control, 217 to 204. AZ now has a 6-3 Republican House delegation (boo-hoo), two Democratic senators and a new Democratic governor. The only chances for Dems to flip 4 Republican leads are now in CA. Mike Garcia is leading by 13,000 but this CA race against Christy Smith has not been called. Republican David Valadao is starting to lose his lead with 54% of the vote in. Kevin Kiley leads Kermit Jones by 10 points with 53% of the vote in. Trump-backed Kiley is the most-likely to win and give Republicans control. It was an expected Republican district. But Democrats are starting to increase their vote margins slightly in statewide CA races. Democrat Adam Gray now leads by 800. Democrats lead in a number of other races that have not been called, and are favored to win 2 in which ranked-choice voting has not yet been applied. So a win by Kiley, Valadao, Garcia or Boebert will sow it up for the poisonous red tide.
