#PA06: Chrissy Houlahan (D) defeats Greg McCauley (R). Dem PICKUP. This seat voted 53%-43% for Clinton in 2016.

“We haven’t had that spirit here since” 1966.
Yesterday was a bad day for Trump, the Tea Party (House Freedom Caucus), and the Republicans.
It was a good day for the Democrats now that Senators Heitkamp, Donnelly and McCaskill were retired, and the House is again in Democratic hands.
But, Pelosi, Hoyer and Clyburn must leave their leadership posts if the Democrats want to win in 2020.
More non-whites voted in yesterdays election then ever before and the same is true for 18 to 24 year old’s.
That is the future of the Democratic Party and the House leadership under Pelosi doesn’t recognize or understand these voters.
Keep in mind that it wasn’t the Pelosi House Democratic leadership team who figured out how to capture the majority of the women’s vote (which occurred in yesterday’s election) for the Democrats………….it was Trump.
The time has come to turn the page.
Don’t forget the OTHER Native American lady elected to office yesterday. Deb Haaland, from the Pueblo of Laguna, will represent District 1 in New Mexico. Let Dolt45 Pocahontas that . . .
Thanks, Ron. Hope you’re doing better!
much better thank you!
Race called for Xochitl Torres Small in NM-2. Granddaughter of immigrant farm worker, only 2nd Dem in 40 years, and 1st woman ever elected to that District!
