Dave Min Wins Rep. Katie Porter's Seat; House Stands at 219-211

By    |   Wednesday, 13 November 2024 12:48 PM EST

Democrat Dave Min has been declared the projected winner in the 47th Congressional District, keeping the seat of departing Rep. Katie Porter, D-Calif., in the Democrats' column.

Republican Scott Baugh, 62, fell nearly 6,000 votes short in his bid to flip the seat to Republicans against Min, 48, a California state senator and former law professor.

The GOP has retained the slim majority and the tally is 219-211 with five races left to call.

Republicans lead three of those remaining races, including the Alaska at-large seat held by Rep. Mary Peltola, D-Alaska.

Outside of Alaska's ranked-choice voting system put in place with an assist from moderate Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, California still has four seats left to be determined, including Districts 9, 13, 21, and 45. Republicans lead in Districts 13 and 45.
