She will have the power of incumbency and the support that goes with it.
With or without trump, that's pretty powerful
Look at Rep David Valadao CA-21. Clinton won his district by 15 points and he was re-elected. CA-39, Clinton by 9, Royce won. And Issa was re-elected (by a slender margin) in 49. Clinton won by 7.

Not saying it's impossible to win them, but let's be honest, red district with incumbency, that's worth 4 or 5% there in a carved district

This gives me hope in the 7th.


Clinton won the district - Lance can be eliminated.

GA-6 will get a rematch in literally *one year* -- and Handel will have actual votes on her record by then.

Ossoff closed a deep red district to only 5 points right out of the gates, with Republicans being forced to pull out every single stop to keep from losing it outright.

This is a GREAT start for 2018, and it's nowhere near the end of the road.

The Dems made a great showing today, and should be proud. 2018 is coming VERY soon, and these were only the safest of the "safe" seats we saw today. Every single one of them should make the Republicans shudder for the next election cycle.

Well done, Dems.

Keep up the great work.


MDN

The GOP is acutely aware that high turnout helps Democrats. That's why they do so much to suppress the vote with voter ID laws and other such nonsense.

Our advantage should be to get our people to the polls, no matter what. That's what we should be doing, above all.
