The most recent count in the House is 205 seats for the Democrats and 213 for the Republicans, with 17 races still too close to call. The Republicans need to win only 5 of them to get a majority. They are likely to get more than 5. So far, the Republicans have flipped six seats and the Democrats have flipped five, for GOP +1.
A big question is will the Republicans' majority be larger than the size of the Freedom Caucus. If not, the FC could still give the next speaker, likely the same as the current speaker, Mike Johnson (R-LA), heartburn. (V)
