Republicans need to win five more seats to keep control of the House.
Republicans on Saturday were close to clinching control of the U.S. House of Representatives, a critical element forWith votes still being counted from the November 5 general election, Republicans had won 213 seats in the 435-member House, according to Edison Research, which projected on Saturday night that Representative Dan Newhouse had enough votes to keep Republican control of Colorado’s 3rd congressional district.
Edison Research said Democrats have won 205 seats so far, including projecting on Saturday that Representative Greg Stanton in Arizona had won re-election. Democrats would need to win 13 of the remaining 17 seats to take control. Most of the remaining 17 House races are in competitive districts in Western states where the pace of vote counting is typically slower than in the rest of the country.
Republican senators will decide next week who will serve as the party’s leader in the Senate in 2025 with John Thune, John Cornyn and Rick Scott vying for the job.
