Pennsylvania state Rep. Fred Keller was projected to easily defeat Democrat Marc Friedenberg in Tuesday's special election to represent the Keystone State's 12th District in the House of Representatives. With 48 percent of precincts reporting, Keller had received 72 percent of the vote, compared to 28 percent for Friedenberg.
Even the liberal analysts are suggesting that the Democrat underperformed almost across the board from how Hillary did in 2016. Keep in mind, we are not talking about the Democrat underperforming their 2018 victory, we are talking about Democrat underperforming their 2016 loss.
This was an open seat where the first time GOP candidate might actually out perform a multi-term incumbent who faced token opposition.

The media won't report it, and dems won't admit it, but American voters know peace and prosperity when they see it.
Still 19 months before the general election but it's not a good sign for Democrats. Fortunately, they are not heeding the warning signs.
BTW 2020 will be the last election under the current electoral college/congressional make up. After the census California and New York are both projected to lose congressional seats to red states,
If no electoral college, no candidate will ever set foot in NH or IA again.
