CBS projection: Democrats could win their largest House majority advantage in nearly 20 years.

CBS News projected that Democrats have won control of the U.S. House of Representatives, ending Republican unified control of Congress since the start of Trump's second term. The projection shows Democrats securing 220 House seats, surpassing the majority threshold and putting them on track for their largest House majority in nearly 20 years. With the chamber in hand, Democrats will be able to lead congressional committee investigations, conduct oversight of the administration, and block parts of Trump's legislative agenda. The outcome marks a significant shift in the balance of power in Washington and sets up divided government for the remainder of Trump's term. What to watch next is how the new Democratic majority uses its committee gavels and whether it can stall or reshape the president's remaining legislative priorities.
