Democrats have secured control of the U.S. House of Representatives in the midterm elections, according to multiple news outlets. The shift marks a significant political change, with Democrats gaining enough seats to override the Republican majority.
News sources including ABC News, CNN, CBS, and NBC projected the Democrats will hold the majority in the House. The Associated Press reported that Democrats had taken more than 100 seats by 10 p.M. In the 293 races on the line. The GOP held just 62 seats, while Democrats gained control of the chamber.
In New Jersey, Democrat Rebecca Bennett won a previously safe Republican district, helping the party in its bid to retake the House. Her victory highlights the broader trend of Democratic gains in key races. The Senate remains too close to call, but the House shift is clear.
This outcome follows a wave of voter turnout and a strong performance by Democratic candidates. The results could empower Democrats to investigate former President Trump and push forward legislation to counter his policies. The midterms have reshaped the political landscape, with the House now under Democratic control.
