Peters defeats DeMaio in CA. [View all]
Rep. Scott Peters (D-Calif.) on Friday defeated Republican challenger Carl DeMaio in one of the most competitive House races.
The Associated Press called the race for Peters, nearly three days after polls closed Tuesday in the San Diego-based district.
Peters led DeMaio 51.2 percent to 48.8 percent, a nearly 4,500-vote margin.
National Republicans such as House Speaker John Boehner, touted DeMaio, an openly gay Republican, as one of their top recruits of the election cycle.
