In the reddest of red Congressional Districts (06) in LA, a democrat takes the open seat. No Democrat has held that seat since 1970, 38 years ago. If the GOP can’t hold a Congressional seat in a reddist or red states in one of the reddist of red districts, they will be part of one of the most spectacular train wrecks in our nations history. And there isn’t a party that has earned the punishment in which they are about to receive.

In a further indication that the Democrats are well-positioned to expand their House majority this November, Democrat Don Cazayoux has won a special election tonight for a Louisiana seat that has been in Republican hands for over 30 years.

With 99% of precincts reporting, Cazayoux leads with 49,371 votes, or 49% of the vote, followed by Republican Woody Jenkins at 46,554 votes, or 46%. In a district that voted 59% for President Bush in 2004, that is simply a stunning result.

This is on top of another big Democratic pick-up two months ago, when Bill Foster (D-IL) won the suburban Illinois seat of former GOP Speaker Dennis Hastert.

In short, this year isn’t going very well so far for the NRCC.
