Republicans Poised to Secure US House Majority

With votes still being counted, Republicans are close to gaining control of the House, crucial for advancing President-elect Trump's agenda.

  • Republicans have won 212 seats in the 435-member House, needing six more for a majority.
  • Control of the House, along with the already secured Senate, would enable Republicans to push through significant policy changes.
  • Key races remain undecided in Western states, where vote counting is slower, including competitive districts in California and Arizona.
  • Democratic Senator Jacky Rosen won re-election in Nevada, despite being a top Republican target.
  • House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries acknowledges the narrowing path for Democrats to maintain control.
