Democrat James Malone just pulled off a narrow victory in a Pennsylvania state Senate special election in a bright red district where Trump won resoundingly with 57% of the vote last November. The 36th district hasn’t elected a Democrat since it moved from Philadelphia to Lancaster County in 1979, according to Lancaster Online. Malone made Musk and recent events in Washington, DC a central part of his campaign.
