The speaker argued that if Mr. Lamb won, it was because he ran as a conservative, a scenario that he said would not be repeated in other races. He also said President Trump’s rally the Friday before the special election helped “close” the race and bring the Republican closer to a possible victory. The New York Times reported that Mr. Lamb held a lead of 641 votes the day after the special election with some absentee ballots still to be counted. Despite the uncertainty, Mr. Lamb went ahead and claimed victory.
