Following Nick Begich's victory in Alaska's lone House seat, Republicans have secured a narrow majority in the House of Representatives. With several members leaving to join President-elect Donald Trump's administration and only three races left to be decided, the party faces a precarious situation as they head into the new year.
The current House composition stands at 219 seats for Republicans and 213 for Democrats, with the outcomes of races in California's 13th and 45th districts, as well as Iowa's 1st District, still pending. In Ohio, Democratic Rep. Marcy Kaptur has maintained a slim lead in the 9th District.
