California's Tight House Races Could Sway Republican Majority

Democrats aim to flip key districts as GOP holds a slim lead in the House.

In California's 45th District, Democrat Derek Tran leads Republican Michelle Steel by just 36 votes with 94% of ballots counted.
District 13 sees Republican John Duarte narrowly ahead of Democrat Adam Gray, with only a 1% difference and 86% of votes tallied.
These races are among the five uncalled House contests that could impact the size of the Republican majority, which currently stands at 218 seats.
President-elect Trump's Cabinet picks include three House Republicans, potentially leading to vacancies and special elections.
The Democratic win in California's 27th District marked the first GOP seat flip in the state this election cycle.
