America is divided up into 435 congressional districts with each district having the power to elect one representative to the House. All 435 were up for election yesterday. Prior to the election the Republicans controlled 247 of the 435 seats in the House of Representatives, with 218 needed for a majority. In addition to the 435 voting representatives, there are also six non-voting representatives from US territories or Washington DC who are only allowed a say in relevant House committees.
Elections to the U.S. House will be held on November 6, 2018. All 435 seats will be up for election. Special elections will be held to fill vacancies that occur in the 115th Congress. Heading into the election, the Republican Party is in the majority, holding 241 seats to Democrats' 194 seats. Due to the general lack of competition, it is unlikely that the Democratic Party will be able to flip control of the chamber in 2018.
