The NYT shows that Dems have won 216 seats and Republicans have won 196. It takes 218 for the majority.
So far, Dems have flipped three seats - 2 in NC and one in Georgia.
Repubs have flipped 8: NM-8, MN-7, IA-1, OK-5, MI-3, SC-1, FL-26, FL-27.
So the Repubs have a net gain of 5 so far.
Of the uncalled races, there is one in California (CA-34) that is between 2 Democrats, so that one will be a hold and get us to 217.
In NY-18, Dem Sean Patrick Maloney is ahead by about 8,000 votes and should hold that seat. That will get us to a Dem majority. Also, in NY-3, Dem Thomas Suozzi trails by about 4,000 votes but only 72% of the votes have been counted, so that one is another good chance to hold. Those seats would get us to 219.
Of the seats rated as "Lean" or "Tossup," we have AZ-1, and I'm not sure why that one hasn't been called for Tom O'Halleran. He leads by almost 13,000 votes. That one gets us to 220.
We may lose CA-48. Harley Rouda is behind by about 7,000. We may lose CA-39 but hold IL-14. We should hold NY-19. Probably will lose TX-24 but hold WA-8. That gets us to 223.
CA-21, CA-25, and IA-2 are razor-thin. In Utah-4, Ben McAdams is up by about 1600 in a tough hold. If we get two of those, that's 225. We might have to live with a 225 - 210 margin.
