Summary
All 435 U.S. House seats are up for re-election, with Republicans aiming to expand their slim majority and Democrats needing just 5 seats to regain control. The race is highly competitive, and results may take days to finalize.
Republicans’ tenure has been marked by internal chaos, including a prolonged speakership battle and the ousting of Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Democrats are campaigning on this dysfunction, hoping to sway voters.
The new Congress will face a critical task in January: certifying the presidential election results, with potential partisan tensions surrounding the process.
I hope the people of those 22 districts are enjoying their democracy to the fullest.
Maybe one day they’ll enjoy it enough to elect representatives who will try to extend democracy to the rest of us by eliminating gerrymandering and the electoral college.
Swing state voter. Just got back from the polls and the parking lot at the library was packed.
Ohioan here. The line was far longer then I have ever seen it before
