My district flipped!
Nov. 16th, 2018 08:16 pmOur Republican incumbent, Mimi Walters, has conceded. It's over!
Here is what i posted on the Book of Face:
Okay, NOW it's official.
This is my district. This is fantastic news. Among many other things, Walters consistently refused to hold town halls that her constituents requested. It got so bad that we sent her sarcastic Valentines. "Roses are red / Violets are blue / You speak for our district / Please speak WITH us too."

This actually garnered "likes" from my mom and my aunt, presumable for the sarcastic Valentine poem. (Edit: As well as the usual slew of positive reactions from my liberal lefty friends.)
The nearby 39th District is still too close to call, but it seems to be leaning Democrat. If it goes that way, then all of Orange County has gone blue. Here, have a pretty Reddit post:
