NEW: Fresno County just added 244 votes, in what's expected to be the final ballot update in #CA13. Adam Gray (D) netted 22 votes. That puts Gray's 187 votes above GOP Rep. Duarte. That's a lead of 0.09%. All five counties have finished counting their ballots.

Big thanks to all the volunteers who came out this last holiday weekend to cure ballots for Adam Gray in #CA13. It's nerve-rackingly close but we're feeling good about flipping this last seat!

👋👋 Hey friends, your periodic update on #CA13: Adam Gray is still in the lead, but now by 143 votes. Unsure how many ballots are outstanding, but common consensus seems to be that John Duarte may need help packing in January. 😬 Allow this to serve as a reminder that every. single. vote. counts.

👀 Guys these two House races in CA are still SUPER close. #CA45 Democrat Derek Tran slightly increased his lead — 545 votes. #CA13 Republican John Duarte barely leading — 204 votes. 🚨 Sign up to contact voters who need to cure their ballots: linktr.ee/teampelosi

Grassroots groups efforts made a difference in swing districts. The shift to the right that measured 6-7% nationwide was reduced to 1 - 3% in battleground states. We flipped a seat here in California and still have a shot at flipping 2 others. #organizingworks
