“Weeks after House Republicans lost their majority, Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) on Thursday cast serious doubts about the “bizarre” election system in California, where it appears that seven GOP-held seats will flip to Democratic control,” The Hill reports.
Ryan said the California election system “just defies logic to me.”
He added: “We were only down 26 seats the night of the election and three weeks later, we lost basically every California race. This election system they have — I can’t begin to understand what ‘ballot harvesting’ is.”
