GOP to Retake House Majority, Cementing Party’s Control Over All Branches of U.S. Government

HeadlineNov 12, 2024

Here in the United States, Decision Desk HQ is projecting Republicans will retain control of the House of Representatives, cementing their party’s control of both houses of Congress and all three branches of government. Other major news organizations have not yet called the House contest for either party. On Monday, Democrats flipped a congressional seat in Louisiana, where state Senator Cleo Fields won the recently redrawn 6th Congressional District, which is Louisiana’s second majority-Black district. That district is under review by the U.S. Supreme Court, which said a day before the election it will review a lower court ruling striking down Louisiana’s new congressional district map.
