Republicans are expected to retake control of the House of Representatives in 2022, and some Democrats are not hanging around to see it happen.

Democrat Melanie Stansbury won the special election for New Mexico's 1st Congressional District. However, Republican Mark Moores made a play for the seat in this deep-blue district by attacking Democrats on rising crime. Democrats may have won, but this race made them nervous.

Questioning the outcome of the 2020 election is forbidden unless you're a Democrat. Just six votes decided the race for Iowa's 2nd District, and Republican Marianette Miller-Meeks won.

In Iowa's 2nd district, the race between Republican Marianette Miller-Meeks and Democrat Rita Hart came down to just six votes in favor of Miller-Meeks, who declared victory. Days later, Hart appealed directly to the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives. She basically wanted Nancy Pelosi to overrule the election and seat her instead of Miller-Meeks.
