https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/06/us/politics/tj-cox-california-david-valadao.html"It seemed that things could hardly get much worse for California Republicans.
But on Thursday, the party conceded a seventh congressional seat in California, as Democrats completed a clean sweep of all the Republican-held seats in California districts where Hillary Clinton had defeated President Trump. Democrats are now likely to take 40 seats from Republicans as they decisively capture control of Congress
David Valadao, a Republican who has represented Central California since 2013 and won re-election in 2016 with a sturdy 57 percent of the vote was defeated by T.J. Cox, an engineer making a second bid for Congress. Representing the Central Valley in Congress has been the honor of a lifetime, Mr. Valadao said in his concession statement."
CNN says the Dems had a blue tsunami.

8 governorships, and how many state legislative seats again? Well over 300 last count I heard.
And the Republicans gained 2 Senate seats, and again, in no small part due to voter fraud.

And the caravan is why Repubs retained control of the senate. No caravan, no senate wins.
