Three In A Row

by Turkana

Travis Childers has won Mississippi's 1st Congressional District. He becomes the third Democrat this year to take a Republican seat in a special election. Earlier, Don Cazayoux won Louisiana's 6th, and Bill Foster won Denny Hastert's Illinois 14th. None of these were considered swing districts. All were deep deep red. This is beginning to look like a true tidal wave year for Congressional Democrats.
