Amy Mcgrath: Fighter Pilot and Barbara Comstock

amy mcgrath: Barbara Comstock went down to defeat to prosecutor Jennifer Wexton, while Clinton-era cabinet member Donna Shalala toppled television personality Maria Elvira Salazar. ; But an important battle in Trump-friendly Kentucky went to the Republicans as incumbent Andy Barr held off a strong challenge from Amy McGrath, a former fighter pilot, putting a dent in Democratic promises of a so-called blue wave, according to National Observer. For weeks, pollsters have been projecting that the Republicans would lose control of the House but maintain control of the Senate, the result being a divided Congress that would untether some of Trump's most vociferous political challengers. In their bid to turn 23 seats and claim a majority in the 435-seat House of Representatives, two key races went to the Democrats early Virginia Rep. As the night progressed, it shaped up precisely that way. True to form, both sides declared victory. Projections showed the Democrats poised to turn as many as 35 seats, even as their aspirations of an even more impressive breakthrough gradually faded away. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
