Democrats take control of U.S. House of Representatives

And we have some breaking news now. American networks have seen what they need. They are ready to make a call. And that projection is that the Democrats will take control of the House of Representatives. The affordability crisis, the war in Iran, the president's lack of popularity, all got through to voters who tonight asked for change. Donald Trump told voters to vote like his name was on the ballot. That surely didn't go the way he wanted. So let's go to David Cochran now. How did they get there, David? Yeah, we only have two flips projected by the Associated Press, but the trend lines are absolutely clear in the counts that are still ongoing here in the House of Representatives. So let's start. They needed to gain three seats. Let's start with New Jersey 7, which is one of the ones we definitely know the Democrats have picked up. Rebecca Bennett with 77% of the votes counted. It has 59.7%. An insurmountable lead right now by every estimate over Thomas Keene, the incumbent who won the seat by five points last time. He's now trailing by 21. Next, we go to North Carolina 11, where Jamie Ager, a farmer famous for his grass-fed beef, is also going to the House of Representatives. He has a 15-point lead with 98% of the votes in over the Republican candidate. And let us show you one more. It's not a gain for the Democrats. It's a hold, but in some ways, it is a gain. Because Kathy Castor has held Florida's 14th, when 99% of the votes counted, she has 51.2% of them. This is what, Florida went through a massive redistricting effort to make it much easier for the Republicans to win seats. And in spite of that, Kathy Castor has held on by nearly, by 5 percentage points and change. So even with the Republicans trying to like redraw the map to do it to their advantage, they failed. To hold off, to take this from the Democrats. So that's the situation, Adrienne, that two definite projected flips, one hold in a gerrymandered state. Right now, the Democrats are a net plus 54 in the House, in the counting. So it's very clear they're on a trend line. They have a majority in at least one chamber of Congress. I should mention, I had Senator Peter Welch from Vermont on Power and Politics last week. And I asked him what he expected to see today. He said, I expect a rebuke of the president's agenda, but for the Democrats, it's not necessarily an embrace of us. It's a chance for them to be embraced, an opportunity to win the long-term trust of the American people are obviously very frustrated. They're going to get that chance in the House of Representatives. We'll see what happens in the Senate.
