The race between Representative Michelle Steel and Derek Tran in California's 45th Congressional District has become the closest House race, flipping back and forth in lead.
With more than 307,000 ballots cast, and about 10,000 remaining to count, both campaigns are focused on ensuring every vote is accurately counted.
California's slow ballot counting process—due to mail-in voting and signature verification—adds to the tension, as the final outcome remains uncertain amid narrow margins.
If Tran wins, it signifies a modest Democratic success in a challenging election cycle, potentially impacting the slim Republican majority in the House.
