Results are continuing to come in for various U.S. House of Representatives races across the country, with 218 seats needed for majority control. All 468 seats were on the ballot in Tuesday’s election with control of the House hanging in the balance. As of Wednesday afternoon, Democrats were projected to win at least 203 seats and Republicans 211 seats

CBS News reported that Republicans currently have a narrow majority in the House, with 220 seats, while Democrats control 212 seats. There are three vacancies.

News organizations including NBC News show Republicans with a lead in seats secured but there is no consensus on how many of those races have been called. House Democrats need to flip four Republican-held districts — while also winning every seat they currently hold — to retake the majority they lost in 2022.

Per Reuters, if Republicans ultimately prevail in the House, they would be in a position to dictate the agenda in Washington, helping Trump deliver on his campaign promises – at least until the 2026 midterm elections.
