#HD81
Recounts in Maine confirm some *extremely* close state House results, in a chamber Dems barely held on to:

Democrats won HD75 by just 7 votes.
And Democrats won HD52 by just 14 votes.
GOP won a recount today in HD81 by just 24 votes.

(The recounts didn't change any of the results.)

Wave elections can produce some unexpected wins, take 2018 in Illinois's #HD81 for example.

This district backed Clinton by 16, but no one expected GOP incumbent David Olsen to lose to Democrat Anne Stava-Murray (who received no help from the party), but she won by two points!

IA-SD41 could flip:

SD41: GOP = 2,972; Dems = 3,153 +3.0%
HD81: GOP = 1,208; Dems = 1,760 +18.6% (Davenport)
HD82: GOP = 1,908; Dems = 1,388 -15.8% (rural SD41)
(HD81+HD82: GOP = 3,116 ; Dems = 3,148)

144 GOP (4.6%) did not vote in the SD41 Race for Gruenhagen but did vote in the house races.

Every time someone screams recount I revisit results like this. They've only recounted 1/2 of their races but of the 12 recounted candidates 11 of them went up or stayed the same. The largest improvement any race saw was HD81 added 5 votes to the winner.
