1. Wondering the same...thanks! n/t

[former9thward]

2. 221 R, 214 D

If the people that are ahead right now stay ahead.

5. Yep...If we can flip CO 3, then we can get it 220-215...but I think those numbers will likely hold

[Mr.Bill]

3. The republicans will control it

likely with no more than a five-seven seat margin.

4. Repukes control

Unfortunately

6. 4 seats in New York made the difference

Et tu Brut, then falls Caesar.

7. GOOP will have a small majority, which will make them a scattered mess.

If the Dems can hold their votes together, and peel away a few GOOPers, the Dems will get the agenda.

Mostly though, I hope the GOOP continues down the backshit crazy hole they are in.

The GOOP could become a permanent minority party.

8. 218-217 would have been entertaining- House constantly in danger of flipping

[DemocraticPatriot]

9. I project that the House will take 'a long time' to elect a new Speaker...

10. Carnage and gridlock

The Republicans currently have a majority so narrow precision measuring tools will be needed to find it. It breaks down a few ways: there's a "cut taxes and deregulate, the smaller the government is, the better" group, an abortion-and-guns group, a "let's repeatedly impeach the entire Biden Administration, maybe they'll kick them all out to shut us up" group, a "let's give a Congressional Gold Medal to the January 6 demonstrators" group...and there's very little cross-pollination between the groups.

My feeling is there will be so much infighting that absolutely nothing will get done the next two years. I give it a nonzero chance that the government goes into default because the GOP won't be able to pass a straight bill...I wouldn't put it past someone like Boebert to add a clause to a bill that reads "the president's signature on this document represents an agreement to resign his office immediately."
