Democrats Secure Control of Both Houses of Congress in Sweeping Midterm Victories

Voters delivered a significant rebuke to President Trump and the Republican Party, leading to Democrats gaining control of both the U.S. House and Senate. Projections indicate Democrats will hold between 251 and 268 House seats and at least 54 Senate seats, flipping long-held Republican seats in states like Texas, Kansas, Ohio, Iowa, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Maine.
