The campaign for control of the House was waged on a narrow playing field of roughly three dozen competitive districts, highlighting the significance of swing states like New York and California.
House Republicans selected Speaker Mike Johnson for his first full term, requiring near unanimous GOP support to be reelected, indicating the challenges of the expected narrow majority.
Sen. John Thune, elected to lead the GOP majority in the Senate, emphasized unity among Republicans, stating, 'This Republican team is united. We are one team, we are excited to reclaim the majority and get to work with our colleagues in the House to enact President Trump's agenda.'
The focus on enacting key items such as border security and extending 2017 tax cuts reflects Republicans' intent to prioritize Trump's agenda under their newly gained congressional power.
