So the top two finishers yet to go forward get to go forward. It wasnt clear for republicans that they would have anyone at the top of the ticket so they could drive out support for their candidates in november. Now it looks like certainly for governor, there a t the top of the ticket. A businessman, john cox will be there. Then on the senate side, he will face gavin newsom. On the senate side, diane fine seen would face Kevin De LeonDianne Feinstein would face Kevin De Leon or jim bradley, not well known from laguna miguel. That will come to play. The bigger question for the house of representatives, there were ten seats that democrats nationwide were targeting. Seven of those districts that Hillary Clinton won where republicans were serving. It wasnt clear because of the mad rush of democrats into all of those races and you had the top ten top two primary system that the vote was so split among so many races that it wasnt clear that a democrat would advance in a now attacks pierce that democrats would now it appears that democrats would advance in all of strict, 39th district, and the 48th district. There are democrats vying for the numbertwo spot or very close numbers betwe democrats and republicans. You see Dana Rohrbacher will advance. Harley rouda and Hans Keirstead fighting it out. Scott baugh, wellknown republican orange county, coming up on the back side. He may end up getting enough votes. Because we dont know what the final vote is i california. What happens here, two things happened yesterday. In l. A. County, there were 118,000 people left off the roles here. They had to fill outer ballots at the polling station. It will take time to count those. The other thing, early voting and mailin ballots. A lot of people walk to their polling station on ele day,drop. All those have to be counted. It will take days if not weeks to get through it. California, simple,traight rwar. Nothings ever complicated in california. Never. Thank you very much.

In alabamas seconds district, martha robyorced into a runoff next with former democratic congressman bobby bright who ran as a republican. Roby dropped her support of President Trump in 2016 in the wake of the acce hollywood tape. In new jersey, mikey sherri sherrill, navy vet and former prosecutor, leading in the 11th district has more than twice the total of the leading republican jay weber. Joining us to talk about this, in portland, oregon, senior political analyst ron brownstein, Senior Editor at the. Good morning, good evening. Were not sure if you stayed up. Were on the boundary. Good morning. Okay, lets talk about this blue wave that was souch anticipated. Again, to go through the numbers that miguel mentioned, 23 needed to flip the house. Ten were competitive in california. Seven districts won by Hillary Clinton. How essential is California Democrats hopes to retake the house . It is central. Overall it was a good night for democrats in the house. They got all of the candidates they wanted in new jersey which could have as many as four turnover opportunities for them. They had a record turnout in iowa. Potentially the highest primary rnout they eve had. In california, as miguel said, although it could go the other two of the districts the one or likelihood now is that they will not get locked out of any of the targeted seats which and you therebo one, two, or three in orange county. You know, of the night, if y look at it, the preference for democratic female candidates continues in most cases. Both of their iowa nominees, both of their new mexico nominees, you mentioned new jersey. The former the former pr. And in california, against steve knight and mimi walters, two of the other republicans in districts that Hillary Clinton carried, they also chose female nominees over male opponents. So banking i think very heavily on the gender gap come is real at this point about donald trump and showing the gop. Overall, democrats i think got almost everything they wanted out of tuesday night with the possible exception of not getting the onetwo. And the 48th and 10th, well watch that for a while, keep an eye on it. You talk about the role exciting women candidates who did well last night. And so that is in part, you know, that is against donald trump. That is a movement against donald yes. Right. When you look within the republicans, though, for example, john cox, came up and did wellause of support from donald trump. It depends on what party youre in. Trump plays both ways. Absolutely. First of all, the weve talked about this before. I think the gender gap is overrated. Historically there are other factors that matter more. Married versus single, College Verse s noncollege. It is real under donald trump. I was looking and the weekly gallup average, they poll every night, donaltrumps Approval Rating among all women is 12 points lower than his Approval Rating among men. Democrats have been polling better than at any point in the past 25 years in the generic ballot for congress. They are key to hopes for november. One thing i wonder about a lot is whether the female candidates are going to help democrats do better than the first female major pty nominee did among bluecollar white women. The big reason donald trum isresident is because he won so many working class white women, particularly in the midwest. Can democrats do better. On the flip side, youre right, look, the republican opposition, the resistance in the Republican Party to donald trump has collapsed as an electoral phenomenon. He is a powerful figure in the party. Remains a deeply polarizing figure in the country. You have republican candidates who are being pulled almost magnetically toward her, particularly on immigration. The hard line on immigration has become common among republican candidates. Well see that in california in a race that is generally most analysts consider over as of today for the governorship. Its a number ive mentioned Donald Trumps at 87 with his own party. The second highest number gallup has tracked since 9 11. Were on the verge of a major breakthrough on the korean peninsula. Has the resistance collapsed, or is donald trump turning the tide, and people are waking up to say things are pretty good in this country now . Republicans agree with his policies overall. He is getting the benefit of the good economy to some extent among the generalelectorate. He himself, the way he conducts himself, the way he approaches the presidency, there are no set of policy accomplishments that can completely erase those concerns. And the polarization around that. You know, again, as we saw yesterday, there is still a lot of energy in the democratic opposition to donald trump. There were a lot of people voting yesterday. You know, we saw that record turnout in iowa. He is still somewhere in the low id 40s. Because of his success among republicans, as ive written, i think this is becoming a more conventional midterm. It appears that the hopes of democrats early on, t ks of the republican coalitld shear off away from donald trump almost like, you know, an iceberg going into the ocean. Thats not going to happen it doesnt look like. If they are going take back the house, they have to solve their usual midterm problem, turning out more latino voters, more africanamerican voters, more young voters whose participation tends to fall off in the midterm. Some mixed signals from california on that, by the way. Look, what is what is is the Democratic Party for . What are the democrats for in 2018, not just what are they resisting against. I think that some of the excitement among some of the Democratic Women who did well last night is that despite what seems to be a party that doesnt have a mission at the moment except for antitrump, theres some excitement among the individual women who are running, ron. Absolutely. The closest thing to a mission i think that theyve articulated and probably their best asset in terms of the kind of voters i was talking about fore, bluecollar women, is hea care, is protecting health care. Both both that was in iowa. I think if you return the republican majority with the possibility of expanding in the senate because of where the contests are that they will come back and try again to r aca, t mention go after medicare down the road to pay for their tax cut. I think that is probably the singlemost effective policy argument that democrats will have. I still think that the overriding energy here is the idea that trump is just barreling through, so many norms of the way the president conducts himself in terms of his attitude toward federal law enforcement, the way he talks about race, the way he talks about opponents in society. And that republicans in congress are not providing any real oversight or check or constraint. That is the engine on the democratic side in terms of their turnout. They have to find the policy argument for the voters. So far health care is by far their best arrow in the quiver. You really see two totally different types of democrats when youre seeing progressives and conservative deats. Its hard to find one overarching narrative. Well check back in about 30 minutes.
