At this time the count in 220 seats for the Republicans and 214 for the Democrats. If this holds then there will be no change in the House from today until January 1, 2025, when the new House takes their seats.
But if Cal-13 holds, then the count will be 220 Republicans to 215 Democrats which means a net gain of one for the Democrats.
But wait, come January 1, 2025, the Republicans will only have 217 seats because Matt Gatz resigned, and 2 others are pending their resignations to become Trump Cabinet members.
As Trump and his MAGA supporters push the agenda the people rejected at least in the House, at least one of the 3 open Republican seats could flip to the Democrats. Look people Trump's MAGA agenda did not win, Harris failed terribly, and people just could not bring themselves to vote for her.
The people's House still runs our government. It appears the Republicans may end up losing 9 seats to the 8 lost by the Democrats.
The Republican House members in blue states who won by a hair are not going to submit to Trump.
In fact, I can see a really messy race for Speaker of the House. MTG is already blaming Speaker Johnson for the failure in the House races. It would be a stupid move by MTG, because it would insure with the help of the Democrats a moderate Republican becomes the Speaker.
THE SENATE ALREADY REBUFFED TRUMP ON MATT GATZ - THEY KNOW THEY HAVE THE UPPER HAND
Trump realizing Congress had no stomach for tariffs already pulled away from his threat. Once the Congress realizes they are in control, Trump will become a weak appearing lame duck.
