Georgia Democrats Flip Solid Red House Seat

Georgia Democrats continued to gather momentum ahead of next year’s midterm elections, flipping a solidly Republican state House seat in a special election on Tuesday, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.

The Downballot: “That’s 25 pickups for Democrats nationwide this year—and zero for Republicans.”

“Overall, in more than 60 special elections nationwide, Democrats are outperforming the 2024 presidential results by an average of more than 13 points.”
