US Midterms: Republicans Narrowly Win Back The House

Republicans have secured the 218 seats needed for a majority in the lower chamber of Congress a week after the midterm elections.

 

While the party’s margin in the House of Representatives is razor-thin, it is enough to stall President Joe Biden’s agenda for the next two years.

 

But Democrats will keep control of the Senate when the new Congress convenes in January.

 

The Republicans – who had hoped to win back control of both chambers – underperformed expectations in last week’s midterms.

 

But they won the seat they needed for their House majority on Wednesday when California’s 27th district went to incumbent Mike Garcia.
