On Wednesday, The Associated Press called Ohio’s 9th Congressional District for Democratic incumbent Rep. Marcy Kaptur and Alaska’s largest district for Republican entrepreneur Nick Begich, who unseated Democratic incumbent Rep. Mary Satler Paltola. The seat turned red.
Three House races in California and Iowa that remained uncontested as of Thursday.
The balance of power currently stands at 219 seats for the Republicans and 213 for the Democrats.
