US House -- Update — November 13, 2024

Locator: 48746TRUMP. 

Updates

6:27 p.m. CST, November 13, 2024: personally I'm a bit sad / disturbed / concerned with three of Trump's most recent nominations, but this is what happens when the opposition moves so far to the left that the pendulum overshoots moving to the right. But, wow, Trump is risking losing it all by going too far. And unlike four years ago when Pence was vice president and who might have provided some "adulting" in the White House, we have, instead of Pence, JD Vance, who is probably more to the right than Trump.

1:22 p.m. CST, November 13, 2024: NBC reporting that GOP retains control of US House. The NYT has not yet "confirmed" -- still showing two seats short. Here's the NBC site showing 218 GOP seats for the US House.

11:41 a.m. CST, November 13, 2024: Arizona -- Congressional District 6 -- screen shot from a few minutes ago:

11:28 a.m. CST, November 13, 2024. Iowa -- Congressional District 1 -- screen shot from 45 minutes ago:

Then, from The New York Times six minutes ago:

Forty-five minutes ago, according to NBC News and the state of Iowa, with only 1,100 votes yet to count, the spread was 813 votes. Now, 733-vote spread. I think I read somewhere before Miller-Meeks won by 60 votes in the last election cycle.

In addition to the report below, a reminder: the US Senate GOP will be voting on GOP senior leadership today -- Thune, Cornyn, Rick Scott.  Later: John Thune.

From there, The New York Times tracking the votes.

Right now,  9:20 a.m. CST, November 13, 2024, screenshot, we have update: two more GOP candidates have been declared winners.

The closest race has narrowed slightly, Iowa -1, Miller-Meeks. Two years ago, vote spread, 600 votes. Vote spread this cycle:

  • two days ago: 796 with >95% reported
  • today: 731 with >95% reported

Currently, for majroity, required: 218:

  • GOP: 216
  • Dems: 207

Six GOP candidates still lead their races --> leads to final GOP tally -- 222.
