The Republican Party on Wednesday clinched a majority in the House of Representatives – giving the GOP control of all three branches of government when President-elect Donald Trump assumes office in January.
Rep. Juan Ciscomani’s (R-Ariz.) victory in Arizona’s 6th Congressional District will give the GOP at least 218 House seats in the new Congress, with nine races yet to be called, according to the Associated Press.
Republicans have flipped six seats in the lower chamber since Election Day, while Democrats have only picked up one.
