Rep. Walberg to Newsmax: House GOP Expects Slim Majority

Rep. Tim Walberg, R-Mich., told Newsmax on Friday that he expects Republicans to maintain a “slim majority” in the House of Representatives with 223 seats “when it all shakes out” ahead of the 119th Congress.

Walberg, fresh off his commanding reelection victory in Michigan’s 5th Congressional District, told “National Report” that Republicans are optimistic about the remaining races that are still too close to call.

“On a conference call yesterday with all of our members, we had reports coming from California and other localities where the counting was still taking place. There was a great amount of optimism, even in California, that we would prevail, with a number of the targeted seats there who were up as of yesterday and looked forward to the other out-of-pocket votes that would be coming in, as primarily being in more conservative Republican areas of the community,” Walberg said.
