YES! Dems pick up *another* GOP seat in NH special tonight. Won 56-44 in seat Trump carried 56-39—a 28-point swing! dkel.ec/2xwclp4

This is now the FIFTH legislative seat Dems have picked up from the GOP this year. We've updated our big board: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

Obama won this seat by less than a point, so Dem Charlie St. Clair's victory is a 12-point swing from 2012 results as well

This is now the 26th time out of 34 D-vs.-R special elections since Trump won that the Dem has outperformed the 2016 presidential results...

And also the 26th time that Dems have outperformed the 2012 presidential results, too

On average, Dems are beating 2016 by 13 pts and 2012 by 8 pts. In 2013, Dems *trailed* 2012 by 12 pts! realclearpolitics.com/articles/2013/…

Oh boy! Another Dem pickup on the way! In Oklahoma, Jacob Rosecrants is up 62-38 in a seat Trump won 52-41! ok.gov/elections/supp…

And Mitt Romney carried this district (OK-HD-46) 60-40, so this swing to the Dems is gonna be huge docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

There we go! With all precincts reporting, Dems pick up Oklahoma's 46th House District 60-40! Second pickup tonight! dkel.ec/2xwh9L2

Oklahoma win is a 31-point swing from the 2016 presidential numbers and a crazy 40-point swing from 2012

What's more, Jacob Rosecrants, the Dem who won in OK tonight, ran & lost in same district last year 60-40. Tonight he WON 60-40

Amazingly, this is the third Dem pickup in the Oklahoma lege this year—and all on deep red turf docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

To recap, Dems PICK UP two seats from GOP:

NH House: 56-44 DEM (56-39 Trump)
OK House: 60-40 DEM (52-41 Trump)

Final thought for the night: Dems have outperformed 2016, 2012 or both in 14 of the 15 states that have had D-vs.-R specials since Trump won
