House GOP Majority on Brink as Texas Special Election Could Shrink Republican Lead
The Republican majority in the US House of Representatives is on the brink as Democrats make gains, with a Texas special congressional election set to further erode their thin 218-213 lead. The GOP's margin will shrink even further after the weekend's election.
The Republican majority in the US House of Representatives is on the brink of collapse as all-Democrat Texas special congressional elections get underway, threatening to shrink their already slim 218-213 margin further. The GOP's control will be severely tested this weekend with a special election to fill a seat currently held by a Democrat. If the Democrats sweep the special election, they could potentially take control of the House, leading to significant shifts in party dynamics and policy-making power. The outcome of these elections could have far-reaching implications for the remainder of the current congressional term.
