The U.S. territory sends one nonvoting delegate to Congress, and that delegate had always been a Democrat going back to 1993. That is no longer true after Republican James Moylan defeated his Democratic opponent and became the first GOP pick-up in Congress and just the second Republican ever sent to Congress by the island.

Thoughts?

I used to live out in the Pacific territories and the parties there are different from the parties in the mainland. That said it's obviously not great news for Dems if a Republican is winning Guam - and going to caucus with the Republicans in the House.

Is this a “Well the D party was the R party back then” explaining?

No, not at all. Just a little context since the political parties out there are interesting. I'm terrified of what is happening today and certainly not sitting here wearing rose colored glasses.

Well the republicans promise nothing. Let’s see if they can live up to their high standards.

I wonder why they picked him? Is he pro-life, a Trump supporter, were they voting against the incumbent? I don't know, and neither did the writer of the article.

Good to know.

My husband and I cancel each other’s vote but I’d never DREAM of trying to get him to NOT vote.

Cool. Two years of nothing. Glad Biden was able to do more in that time than Trump did and grifted off the government over his miserable, embarrassing 4 years.

Those are some lousy exit polls.

Watching this happen all night after screaming since 2021 that the Dems needed to focus on inflation not baby allowances is just...unreal.

Manchin warned them for a year straight.

- Moderate Dem

We did this to ourselves and it's going to be more awful than we can imagine.

You mean corporate price gouging? Focusing on that right?
