The Republicans lost a seat yesterday that they'd previously claimed as a victory.
Yesterday, New Mexico Attorney Xochitl Torres Small defeated her Republican opponent Yvette Herrell. Herrell had prematurely declared victory on Tuesday. Torres Small did not concede because absentee votes had not been counted.
“We had an unprecedented amount,” Doña Ana County Clerk Amanda Lopez Askin said. “We weren’t expecting it, and we frankly didn’t have the people infrastructure in place.”
The results have now been certified by New Mexico’s secretary of state.
The seat had been left vacant by GOP Rep. Steve Pearce, who ran for governor. He was defeated by his Democratic challenger Michelle Lujan Grisham.

Will the "new" be taken out now? I don't know where she stands on any of the immigration bullshit.
