Punchbowl News: “House Democrats are ecstatic after winning a special election in New York last night, holding onto a seat that had been heavily favored to swing into the GOP column.”
“Democrats are now arguing that predictions of a Republican romp in November – which they’ve been hearing for the last 18 months or so – are wrong. And they’re pointing to abortion and the Supreme Court’s decision striking down Roe v. Wade as the key to Tuesday’s victory, and possibly the House this fall.”
“Democrat Pat Ryan beat Republican Marc Molinaro in the special election to replace former Democratic Rep. Antonio Delgado in New York’s 19th District.“
Ryan Matsumoto: “Democrats have now outperformed Biden’s numbers in each of the four U.S. House special elections since the Dobbs decision in June.”
