CNN: Republicans Retain House Majority

The Facts

• CNN and NBC have projected that Republicans will win another two House races in the 2024 election, giving them the necessary 218 seats necessary to retain their majority. The GOP will now control the Presidency, the House, and the Senate in the next Congress.

• While the GOP held onto several competitive seats in toss-up districts, the Democrats lost critical House districts in areas that Democratic Pres. Joe Biden had won in 2020. The latest two GOP wins were in California and Arizona.

• However, Democrats were able to flip seats as well, such as three Republican-held seats in New York and one in California. In Pennsylvania, Republicans unseated two Democrats, including the party's top member of the House Ethics Committee.
