Democrats should be riding high after two impressive special election victories this week with promising implications for November. Veteran Democratic lawmaker Tom Suozziwon back his old job representing New York's 3rd Congressional District, flipping the seat vacated by disgraced Republican Rep. George Santos and engineering a nearly 16-point net turnaround in the districtfrom the 2022 midterm.
And in a Pennsylvania blowout, Democrat Jim Prokopiak won battleground state House District-140 in Bucks County, a critical suburban swing district,by a whopping 35 points, 68% - 32%.
Both of these decisive wins hold valuable lessons for Democrats as we look toward November. Here are five takeaways to keep in mind.
