John Durate (R-CA) in a key race in the House of Representatives.A batch of recently counted ballots in California's 13th congressional district gave Gray a lead over the incumbent Republican by just over 100 votes.If Gray holds on, it would give Democrats their 215th seat in the House of Representatives and shrink the Republican majority down to nearly nothing.All of this prompted Greene to baselessly accuse Democrats of committing fraud to win.ALSO READ: 'Overlooked' aspect of Trump's tariff threat 'exposes ugly MAGA scam': analysis"Congressman John Duarte was winning but after 22 days of counting ballots he is now losing by 105 votes," Greene fumed on X.
