(Reuters) - A Republican U.S. representative of Utah who is trailing her Democratic challenger filed a lawsuit on Wednesday seeking to halt vote counting while two incumbent Republican congressmen in California and New Jersey conceded, more than a week after the U.S. midterm elections.
At least two other congressional races were resolved in Democrats’ favor on Wednesday. In California, Republican Representative Jeff Denham, who represents a district east of San Jose, conceded to Democrat Josh Harder in a statement.
In New Jersey, Republican Representative Tom MacArthur, who represents a district in the southern part of the state, conceded to Democrat Andy Kim.
=====================================================
More white caps on that Blue Wave that Republicans insist is just imaginary.
Living in the Phila-S Jersey TV market, the anti-Kim ads were so frequent & nasty that they became funny to watch. The Repubs must have spent a media fortune to keep MacArthur's seat, but his pro-tax cut, anti-ACA positions just didn't cut it with the people he represents. They in turn gave him what he deserved: the boot.
