Republicans are gaining ground on the House. These races are still to be seen.
Donald Trump might more easily implement his program if the Republican Party were to get majority control of the US House of Representatives, which they are now four seats short of.
According to Reuters predictions, the party has 214 MPs on Monday morning, just short of the 218 members required to seize control of the lower house of Congress, Republicans are gaining ground.
Since Republicans have already taken control of the White House and the Senate, the upper house, the incoming president-elect may hold substantial influence once he takes office on January 20, 2025.
Republicans who control the House will be able to start impeachment procedures against officials and propose spending legislation.
Trump made it easier for a united Republican Party to enact border control policies and tax cuts.
