"I have worked for many candidates. Never with greater enthusiasm than for this one."Wilson says he wishes everyone could see his "Mike Garcia For Congress" hat.— Libby Denkmann (@libdenk)If Mike Garcia (R)'s lead over Christy Smith (D) in holds, and chances look pretty good it will, he'll become the only House Republican from a district Hillary Clinton won with more than 50% of the vote.— Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict)Note that some county election sites will say 100% precincts reported, though there are still an unknown number of votes to be tallied in this vote-by-mail election (can be received as late as Friday if they are postmarked by today)— Greg Giroux (@greggiroux)11:25: Numbers looking good for Garcia:It would be imprudent to call the race w/o knowing how many ballots are left to count, but the odds of Garcia (R) ultimately winning seem pretty high to me right now.— Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict)11:20 PM: Garcia 56%, Smith 44% with 76% reporting.11:10 PM: Garcia (R) opens up double-digit lead:Huge dump from LA County.

This race "showed that Wisconsin is trending blue for the fall."— Ben Wikler (@benwikler)Not sure I'd make too much of fact that GOP margin (14 pts?) in WI-07 will be smaller than 20 pt Trump margin in '16. Remember Jan. 2018 "wake-up call" GOP loss of state Senate seat in western WI that Trump had carried by 17? That was a 27-pt swing -&gt;Dems. This is 6 pt swing— Craig Gilbert (@WisVoter)NRCC Chair Emmer:"Democrats are once again stuck w/Comrade Kara Eastman &amp; her embrace of most toxic parts of socialist agenda..Don Bacon has dedicated his life to serving his country &amp; is invaluable advocate for NE families in Congress.I look fwd to working w/him for yrs to come"— Craig Caplan (@CraigCaplan)10:42 PM: Could be a very important Electoral vote if this poll is even close to being accurate:New: says it has polling showing Kara Eastman (D) leading Rep.

Tom is a proven fighter for WI families &amp; I look forward to serving alongside him in Congress."— Craig Caplan (@CraigCaplan)10:05 PM: Cook Political Report’s Wasserman thinks AOC-backed Eastman will have a tough time flipping the seat in November:Likely missed opportunity for House Ds as Kara Eastman (D) defeats Ann Ashford (D) in primary to face GOP Rep. Don Bacon (R).If Eastman couldn't beat him in 2018, her chances aren't much better in 2020. But the district (one Electoral Vote) is a Toss Up for president.— Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict)9:42 PM: How Dems are planning to spin:Wisconsin Democratic Party Chairman playing the expectation game, basically saying anything less than a 20-point win for Tiffany is bad news for in the fall— Scott Bauer (@sbauerAP)&nbsp;9:35 PM: Tiffany (R) projected to win in WI-07:Decision Desk HQ projects the winner of the WI-07 special election.— Decision Desk HQ (@DecisionDeskHQ)9:30 PM: In NE-02, Kara Eastman is the projected winner for the Dems.Congratulations to for her primary victory in .We are proud to fight alongside you for a nation that belongs to all of us, not the wealthy few.— Justice Democrats (@justicedems)9:25 PM: WI-07–Tom Tiffany (R) 56%, Tricia Zunker (D) 44%, with about 4% reporting.9:20 PM: And in the first shocker of the night (sarcasm!)…BREAKING: Joe Biden wins Nebraska Democratic Primary, NBC News projects.— NBC News (@NBCNews)9:15 PM: CA-25:&nbsp;The Risk/Reward Choice Facing Many Republican Candidates This Year:Less than 4 hrs left to cast your vote to prevent liberal Sacramento policies from spreading to DC. Polls close at 8pm, so make sure to return your ballot or visit a Vote Center ASAP!If you have any questions about voting in this election, visit— Mike Garcia (@MikeGarcia2020)Part of Mike Garcia (R)’s appeal in (Clinton +7% in 2016) is that he’s a lot of things Trump’s not: a military veteran, son of a Mexican immigrant, even-keeled and well-credentialed.If he loses, close identification w/ Trump (not a new voting site) = the likely culprit.— Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict)Although it would be impressive for Mike Garcia (R) to have an initial lead of, say, &gt;10%, my expectation is that we won't have a clear picture of who has won by tonight…and probably not by tomorrow night either.— Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict)The in-person voting site in Lancaster (hardly the "most Democrat[ic] area" in CA) for special elex was requested by city's GOP mayor, per elections officials..a mayor who welcomed POTUS to CA this year. All-mail elections often have some in-person for those who need it.— John Myers (@johnmyers)The controversy over Democrats pushing for a polling location in Lancaster has bubbled up to the president. FWIW, the GOP mayor of Lancaster said there should be an in-person center to avoid “even the appearance of affecting the outcome by limiting the ability to vote."— Kirk A. Bado (@kirk_bado)9:00 PM: Polls closed in Wisconsin and Nebraska.Polls close in 30 minutes in for this Special Election. According to website, more than 100,000 absentee ballots were sent out – roughly 1/4 of registered voters.— Dan Hagen WJFW (@DanielCHagen)Polls close in less than an hour; meanwhile, some insight from chair Prof. John Blakeman on what a declining conservative margin in last month's election could mean for the district:— Naomi Kowles (@NaomiKowles)Additionally, we talked about another special election happening today across the country in CA-25. While the districts and candidates certainly aren't parallel (CA-25 appears tight while WI-07 is considered safe) they're both traditionally Republican (until 25 flipped in '18).— Naomi Kowles (@NaomiKowles)“If both districts become Rep. but by a very small percentage, then it indicates that the Democrats are probably going to expect another wave coming into the house in Nov. But if both Republicans in WI-07 and CA-25 run away with the vote, then a blue wave is probably unlikely.”— Naomi Kowles (@NaomiKowles)8:50 PM: Polls will close in Wisconsin and Nebraska at 9 PM ET. Polls in CA-25 will close at 11 PM ET.Nebraska: Democrats think they have a chance of clipping NE-02 in the fall.Kara Eastman, Ann Ashford, and Gladys Harrison are vying to take on incumbent Rep. Bacon in the fall.Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has backed Eastman.Pretty quiet at the polls in Grand Island. This site was seeing 5-6 voters an hour.
