California Republican Assemblyman James Gallagher will serve the remainder of late Congressman Doug LaMalfa’s House term after cruising to victory in a special election Tuesday. With a little more than half the expected vote tallied in the far northern California 1st Congressional District, Gallagher had 62. 6% support, well above the 50% needed to avoid an August runoff.
