        Yes, this election was a litmus test to see how much traction Democrats can get from Arizona. Seeing that it was only 6 pts in a predominantly red state -- GOP should start to worry.

        GOP also invested millions to back Debbie Lesko to walk away with 6pts.

        Absolutely correct. The RNC poured $1M into this district and Hiral spent her $250k non-PAC money. This was never about winning the special. This is about winning the same seat that is up for re-election in November!!

        Hiral outraised Lesko $734k to $564k source: https://www.opensecrets.org/races/candidates?cycle=2018&id=AZ08&spec=N …. However Lesko outspent Hiral by a wide margin because of the $1M dumped in by big money PACs.pic.twitter.com/EugNeFEPck

        By 6 points. Not exactly a landslide. She shouldn’t get too comfortable

        In a district that Trump won by 20 some points republicans are suppose come out with a landslide instead. Dems are either completely flipping the state or are getting way too close to be comfortable!

        If the GOP have to fight in districts that are R+13 like #AZ08, the questions come November is going to be, How many seats are Republicans going to be able to keep. By the way, the Dems didn't even invest in this race.pic.twitter.com/fKmyHIlwww

        That's because the Democrats are broke. They had to borrow like $6 million.

        Actually dems have TONS of money, they just didn’t invest in this race because it’s a R+13 district that was seen as being out of our swing zone. What’s sad is the GOP spent tons of money and barely held onto a super-red district against a dem who spent almost nothing.pic.twitter.com/SvndcF1lKf
