Rep. Mike Garcia Concedes Without AP Race Call

In recent U.S. House races, several Republican incumbents have conceded to their Democratic challengers. In California, Rep. Mike Garcia conceded to George Whitesides, despite the Associated Press not yet calling the race, with Whitesides leading by 2 points and Garcia ensuring a smooth transition. In Oregon's 5th District, Lori Chavez-DeRemer conceded to Janelle Bynum, who leads with 48% to 45%, a race closely watched as a potential influencer of House control. Meanwhile, in Maryland's 6th District, Republican Neil Parrott conceded to April McClain-Delaney, who won with 52.6% of the votes, marking Parrott's third consecutive defeat. These outcomes contribute to the ongoing determination of party control in the House, where Republicans have secured 218 seats, maintaining their majority.
