Congressional Catfight: Jackson-Lee Defeats Foxx
The polls are now closed, and here are your results: Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) has handily defeated Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC), by a margin of 64 percent to 36 percent. Although Jackson-Lee’s lead narrowed over time, it was still commanding by the time that voting concluded.
This fight was much closer than Katherine Harris’s demolition of Jo Ann Emerson; but it wasn’t exactly a squeaker. Expect the margins to tighten, and the catfights to grow more competitive, as the tournament goes on.
Later today, we’ll offer you the next catfight up for bids. So come back soon!

How 'bout adding Member's spouses and recent past Members to the line-up? Debbie Dingel could do some real damage, I would back her in just about any House cat fight. Mikulski may take her in a cross-chamber match, however. Also thinking about Karen McCarthy, who was a force to be reckoned with. Ok, so the Rayburn stairs took her once, but that was not a fair fight ...
