Democrats have scored another upset victory in a special congressional election. On Tuesday, Democratic candidate Travis Childers beat Republican Greg Davis for the vacated seat in Mississippi’s First Congressional District. The district had gone Republican since 1995. It was the third straight Democratic special election win this year. The string of Republican losses in conservative districts is seen as a sign of growing dissatisfaction with the Bush administration that could heavily affect the upcoming November elections.
