Republican Have Tough Math in the House [View all]

“House Republicans on the verge of clinching a majority in the next Congress are already taking a victory lap, but their expected slim margin and unruly nature could undercut their efforts to pass President-elect Donald Trump’s agenda,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“While votes are still being counted in some races, the focus is turning to House Republican leaders, still bruised from infighting that led to the ouster of the GOP speaker and embarrassing failed votes. Those squabbles were exacerbated by the party’s historically small majority, currently at 220 to 212 with three vacancies, and leaders now need to wrangle a similarly tiny advantage next year.”
