Democrat George Whitesides Wins Key California House Seat
TL;DR Summary
Republican Rep. Mike Garcia conceded to Democrat George Whitesides in a key California House race, marking the first multi-term GOP loss in the 2024 elections. This outcome provides a rare victory for Democrats in an otherwise challenging election cycle, where they lost control of the White House and Senate and are projected to narrowly miss reclaiming the House. Garcia, a frequent Democratic target due to his district's support for Biden, was defeated by Whitesides, a former NASA chief of staff and Virgin Galactic CEO.
