  • Three weeks after Election Day, there are still three races yet to be called for the House of Representatives that could determine how much wiggle room Republicans will have to work with when they swear in their majority next year.

The article from MSN discusses the ongoing delays in calling several U.S. House races following the recent election. Key points include the tight races in California, where the counting of mail-in ballots has extended the process due to state laws allowing ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted if received within seven days afterward. In New York, particularly in the 3rd Congressional District, the race between Democrat Tom Suozzi and Republican Mazi Melesa Pilip remains uncalled due to a very close margin, with Suozzi leading by just over 4,000 votes. Similarly, in California's 13th District, the contest between Republican John Duarte and Democrat Adam Gray is extremely close, with only a few hundred votes separating them. These delays are attributed to the need for accuracy in vote counting, the verification of mail-in ballots, and the legal processes involved in ensuring every vote is counted correctly. The outcomes of these races could influence the balance of power in the House, making each vote critical.
