California Republican Mike Garcia on flipping House seat: 'There's an awakening here'

Mike Garcia reacted on “Fox & Friends” on Thursday to becoming the first Republican to flip a Democratic House seat in California in more than two decades saying, “There's an awakening here in California.”

Democrat Christy Smith conceded the special election race for California's 25th Congressional District to Garcia on Wednesday, marking the first time Republicans will retake a Democratic-held congressional seat in the state since 1998.

Garcia, a former Navy combat pilot, had a 12-point edge over Smith, a state assemblywoman, as of late Tuesday night in the contest for the swing-district seat vacated by Katie Hill after her resignation.

California is the biggest screw up. There are so many Californians in my State due to the crazy laws in California. It is just amazing how disfunctional California is?

11:37 CA House 25 was NEVER "historically a red district" It flip flopped back and forth. It's not ever been a "historically" either.
The democrats thought for sure they had it since hill had won by 9 percentage [points and clinton took the district by 7 percentage points and newsome by 3.
The democrats are in shock over this that you can take to the bank.
