Republicans Have 217 House Seats, Need One More to Take the Majority

The House Republicans finished with five seats by the end of Monday. We still have 13 uncalled House races.

Here are the races Republicans could win:

• CA-03: Republican Kevin Kiley leads Democrat Kermit Jones.
• CA-13: Republican John Duarte leads Democrat Adam Grey by almost 800 votes.
• CA-22: Incumbent Republican Rep. David Valado leads Democrat Rudy Salas
• CA-27: Incumbent Republican Rep. Mike Garcia leads Democrat Christy Smith.
• CO-03: Incumbent Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert leads Democrat Adam Frisch.
• CO-08: Democrat Yadira Caraveo barely leads Republican Barbara Kirkmeyer

Some Republicans want to delay leadership votes since Congress still has uncalled House seats and two uncalled Senate seats, even though no matter what, the Democrats will have the Senate.

It’ll be like in 2018 when the Democrats retook the House, and the Republicans kept the Senate.

People demanded fresh blood in leadership on both sides of the aisle. Yet we ended up with the same old people (literally and figuratively): Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer, Mitch McConnell, John Thune, etc.
