Gabe Evans Wins Colorado House Race

The Republicans are on the brink of retaining their majority in the U.S. House of Representatives, needing just one more seat after a series of key victories, including the recent win by Gabe Evans in Colorado's 8th Congressional District. The GOP currently holds 215 of the required 218 seats, while Democrats have 205 seats and need to win 13 of the 16 undecided races to take control. In California, Democrats are leading in several tight races, with Mark Takano successfully re-elected and other incumbents like Josh Harder and Mike Levin maintaining slim leads. Meanwhile, Colorado Democrats are anxiously awaiting final results in two uncertain House races to see if they can keep their supermajority. The ongoing tally in Maine's 2nd District will also be critical, as it will involve a ranked-choice retallying process. As the election results continue to unfold, the balance of power in both the House and Senate hangs in the balance, with significant implications for future legislation.
