Two more California midterm election wins leave GOP poised to seize U.S. House control
Two threatened Republicans in California triumphed over Democratic challengers, helping move the GOP within one seat of seizing control of the House.
Ten races in the state remained undecided as vote-counting continued, though only a handful were seen as tight enough to break either way. In the 45th District anchored in Orange County, Steel, a South Korean immigrant looking for a second term in Congress, faced Chen, a Navy reservist and the son of immigrants from Taiwan. The race was being watched nationally for what it says about the preferences of the Asian community.
In California, the primary House battlegrounds are Orange County — a suburban expanse southeast of Los Angeles that was once a GOP stronghold but has become increasingly diverse and Democratic — and the Central Valley, an inland stretch sometimes called the nation’s salad bowl for its agricultural production.
