After spending all week on Capitol Hill for new lawmaker-orientation, Democrat Eric Massa has flown home to western New York to officially declare victory in a congressional district dominated by Republicans since the Civil War.

With all absentee ballots now counted, the retired Navy commander says Friday he beat two-term Republican incumbent Rep. Randy Kuhl by more than 5,000 votes.
