Republicans Secure House Majority After 2024 Elections

Republicans have secured control of the U.S. House of Representatives, achieving a majority with 218 seats, according to projections by Decision Desk HQ and other outlets. This victory, alongside their control of the Senate and the White House, gives Republicans a unified government, facilitating the advancement of President-elect Donald Trump's agenda. The GOP's win came as they flipped key seats and maintained a slim majority, despite some losses. The recent elections also saw significant redistricting efforts in states like Alabama and New York, which influenced the competitive landscape. With a unified government, Republicans are expected to focus on policies such as tax cuts, energy deregulation, and border security. The outcome signals a potentially significant shift in legislative priorities and governance style in Washington.
