Associated Press has called Dave Min (D) the winner of CA 47, Democrats won 213 seats as of now. CA 13, another toss up seat could also be called within couple of days. I think Adam Gray wins a nail biter in the end which will shrink Republicans House to a paper thin majority. Among those three remaining U.S. House open races, chances are Republicans will win Iowa-1 District, Democrats grab California-13 and California-45 District. In this case, Democrats will win 215 seats and Republicans win 220 seats.

@Europa

 Interesting if it falls that way.  Closer than before.  Would likely mean any 3 republicans who disagree with Johnson/trump's racist/fascist policies can derail certain bills.

What do you think the odds are the Dems get 215?

Fubah, pretty good from my own perspective, late ballots tend to favor Democrat candidates in California. Both Dems Adam Gray and Derek Tran were way behind their opponents on Nov. 5, now Tran has taken the small lead and Gray is just about 351 votes behind Duarte (R) with 95-96% reporting. CA 47's Dave Min was thousands votes behind Scott Baugh at the election date, but Min has taken that seat. 

Regarding Iowa-1 district, it has been entering into recount but I give it to GOP.

In CA-13, the lead of Duarte (R) has been cut to 203 votes from 351 votes as of now with some three thousands ballots remained to be counted. Merced County elections officials must certify the vote by Dec. 3.

Result from this District is going to be a nail biter when all of the dust is settled. John Duarte is incumbent of this CA-13, Democrats can pick up a precious seat if Adam Gray wins it.

@Europa

 So more or less the same set up as the current House.

Yup, Republicans 220, Democrats 215. In addition, there will be few opening GOP seats needed for special elections in that Trump picks some of his cabinets from the House GOP.

Rudy Giuliani earlier today.. "The reality is I have no cash. Right now, if I want to call a taxi, I can't do it. I don't have a credit card; I don't have a checking account. I have no place I can go take cash out, except a little bit that I saved but its getting down to almost nothing."

Where are all his friends & associates? Won't anyone throw this guy a bone?

For me, he did a tremendous job after 911. That means something to me. 

Yea, he fucked up but we all need a little help once in a while.

Sad
