Guam Sends First Republican Delegate to the House in 30 Years

A Republican was elected as Guam’s U.S. House delegate for the first time in decades, according to the Guam Election Commission on Nov. 8.
In the race for Guam’s nonvoting House delegate, Republican James Moylan defeated Democrat Judith Won Pat, 17,075 votes to 15,427 votes, according to data provided by the island territory.
Moylan is the first Republican to be elected as Guam’s delegate in about 30 years. Guam, which is 15 hours ahead of the East Coast, has sent only Democrats to the House since 1993.
Moylan is also only the second Republican to ever serve as Guam’s delegate. That seat was created by Congress in 1972….}
