On November 5 elections will take place for all 435 seats in the House of Representatives across the United States, with Republicans hoping to strengthen their hold over the second chamber which they captured at the 2022 midterm elections.
A major study by the Cook Political Report, a group which provides nonpartisan election analysis, has highlighted 29 races in which an incumbent Republican could be under threat, split between those classed as “likely Republican,” “lean Republican” and “Republican toss-up.”
Republicans are hoping to take control of both chambers of Congress in next months elections following their mixed result at the 2022 midterms, when the GOP won control over the House but Democrats held the Senate when a widely anticipated “red wave” failed to materialize.
A study by FiveThirtyEight, a polling analysis website, published on Thursday concluded the Republicans have a 52 percent chance of controlling the House after November’s elections, against 48 percent for the Democrats. The conclusion was based on a study of “polling, economic and demographic data.”
Newsweek has produced a list of all the House Republicans who the Cook Political Report suggests could be under threat in November. These are divided into seats in which it is a toss-up whether the Republican incumbent will lose, those where this is unlikely and those where it is very unlikely. These three categories replicate the “Republican toss up,” “lean Republican” and “likely Republican” sections produced by the Cook Political Report.
