Democrat says thousands of uncounted ballots remain in Clackamas County; no winner yet in new 6th District. Republican Lori Chavez-DeRemer claimed victory, but Democrat Jamie McLeod-Skinner declined to concede, as thousands of ballots remain uncounted for the open U.S. House seat in Oregon's 5th District. Chavez-DeRemer and McLeod-Skinner issued statements after that race was called by The Oregonian/Oregon Live on Friday morning, Nov. 11. The Associated Press has not called that race, or the contest for Oregon's new 6th District seat, which pit Democrat Andrea Salinas against Republican Mike Erickson, both of Lake Oswego.
