Democrat Flips Deep-Red House Seat in Missouri
Democratic candidate Mike Revis on Tuesday flipped a deep-red State House seat in Missouri by a 108-vote margin over his Republican opponent. Revis defeated GOP candidate David C. Linton in the special election to replace Rep. John McCaherty, who left the office to focus on his run for Jefferson County executive. President Trump won the heavily Republican district by a 61-33 margin in the 2016 election. This marks the 35th legislative seat nationwide that has flipped since Trump’s inauguration and the second just this year. —Gideon Resnick
