BREAKING: AP calls Del. Congress race in favor of Lisa Blunt Rochester

DELAWARE – The Associated Press has called the U.S. Congress race in Delaware in favor of Democrat Lisa Blunt-Rochester.

Congresswoman Blunt-Rochester defeated Republican challenger Lee Murphy to win a fourth term in the U.S. House of Representatives.

47 ABC’s Rob Petree spoke to her shortly after her race was called where she thanked the voters and vowed to continue to work for them in Congress.

“I think that our positive message that we got to work together really did resonate with people,” Congresswoman Blunt-Rochester said. “In order for us to solve these big challenges, like healthcare, the economy, social security, women’s right to choose, we need to work together, and I think that resonated with people.

Congresswoman Blunt-Rochester has been in office for five years.

These results are unofficial.
