Democrat Christy Smith conceded victory Wednesday to Republican Mike Garcia.

in a nationally watched California congressional special election.

With more than 143,000 votes counted Tuesday night, Garcia held 56% of the vote. Smith, a state assemblywoman from Santa Clarita, had 44% and trailed by more than 17,000 votes. It’s a swing district held by Republicans since 1993 until Hill claimed it for the Democrats in 2018. The concession means the office will be the first California congressional seat flipped from Democrats to Republicans in 22 years.

In a Wednesday morning tweet, Trump called the election"a big Congressional win in California for Mike Garcia." "I have 10 years of proven results in this community," she said at the debate, emphasizing an approach of collective conversations that involve every corner of the communities she represents. “Everyone gets a seat at the table.”

You better keep the Repubs from ruining your state Cali!

Total loser in blue state. Where is that lady who couldn’t keep her pants on ?

Sweet

As long as the Democrat party keeps heaving towards communism and socialism, Republicans are going to win. Biden may think he's helping his cause with younger voters by tapping AOC to be an advisor, but to many that's a big reason to turn to the Republican party.

put Hill back put her back put her back put her back

Tremendous win for California, which is in dire need of a more politically diverse representation. The same rich and elite Democrats have ran California since Reagan and the middle class has been strangled to death by them. Congratulations and keep it going, Californians!

Nice job, Katie. Thanks for letting everyone down.

I love when the diverse republican candidate beats the white woman democrat lib candidate

I hope she continues be an advocate for people, in some capacity.
