SoCal races remain too close to call

Several Southern California races that still remain in limbo could make the difference in a swing of power in favor of one political party. After more than two days of votes being counted, the races for Districts 41 and 47.

District 41

The battle for District 41 has teetered in favor of both challengers at different points of the race, with Democrat Will Rollins jumping to a huge lead early on, only to see that lead slip away in favor of the incumbent Rep. Ken Calvert. District 41 oversees portions of Southern California including Menifee, Corona and Palm Springs.

District 47

Incumbent Rep. Katie Porter, famous for her attacks on the CEOs of massive corporations while armed with her "Whiteboard of Justice," jumped to a huge lead early on in the race against her competitor in attorney Scott Baugh.

However, a redrawn district and an apparent swing in favor of a "red wave" throughout Orange County, Porter's lead has diminished to just a few thousands votes.
