After spending nearly $9M for one seat, the Democrats have won: A Runoff in June!
That's a lot of money that won't be available for other contests, well played.
Now can the Republicans hold a seat in June?

I don't think it will take much money, the Dems already spent more than it was worth. This was an attempt to 'stop the dam break' it didn't work.

Because of things to do, I wasn't watching the results, just saw this article and it's a riot! People not understanding '6th Congressional District' was not a statewide election.
