Decision Desk has called CA-03, projecting that Kevin Kiley will win. CA-03 was one of the 4 remaining races where a Republican was leading.

There was a small update to the count that favored Kiley preceding the call:

Update out of Sacramento County in #CA03 adds another 7,025 votes that break 52.2%/47.8% for Republican Kevin Kiley, netting him another 311 votes and boosting his lead to 10,030 votes. https://t.co/oot2uwnl26

Nevertheless, adding that race to the 217 seats Decision Desk had already called as of last night gives the GOP 218 seats and control of the House.

Decision Desk HQ projects Republicans have won a majority in the U.S. House with at least 218 seats.

But so far no one else is jumping on the bandwagon. The CA-3 race still has 44% of the vote uncounted so it looks like the AP and the networks are waiting for more before making a call. But Kevin Kiley himself is going with it.

The race has just been called in our favor. This secures a Republican Majority in the House of Representatives.

I’m sure Lauren Boebert was hoping this would be her but an update in her race isn’t expected until tomorrow.

The pattern for the last several days has been that these slow-counting seats in California give a daily update in the late afternoon/early evening local time. So I expect a few more races could be called tonight.

Until then, the NY Times has a story up suggesting that Nancy Pelosi may not be leaving congress after all:

As Democrats celebrate a stronger-than-expected performance in the midterm elections, a consequential question is hanging over the party: What will become of Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the party’s long-serving House leader and the first woman to hold the post?…

Now the question of will she stay or will she go has given way to a potential third option that some people close to Ms. Pelosi, 82, argue is a serious possibility for her: stepping down from leadership but remaining in Congress in a sort of emeritus role that would allow her to offer counsel to her colleagues and support the agenda of President Biden, 79, whom she has urged to run for re-election in 2024…

“There are all kinds of ways to exert influence,” Ms. Pelosi told CNN’s Dana Bash on Sunday. “Speaker has awesome power, but I will always have influence.”..

Representative David Cicilline, Democrat of Rhode Island, said he could not envision a scenario where Ms. Pelosi stayed in Congress but stepped aside as a leader.

“Whatever the speaker decides, there’s broad support in the caucus to support that decision,” Mr. Cicilline said. “It’s hard for me to imagine that there’s serious consideration to remain there and not be in leadership.”

Pelosi also hasn’t ruled out a leadership post so it’s not a done deal yet either way. Personally I don’t know why she’d want to stick around. She’s 82-year-old and her husband just got attacked. Why not hang it up and go home?

Anyway, I’ll update below if there are any race calls tonight.

Update: I haven’t seen any calls by the Associated Press but the NY Times has called two more races for the Democrats, New Mexico 2 and Colorado 8. Both are races where Democrats were leading.

The other interesting update is that CA-13 now has Democrat Adam Gray leading by just 600 votes with 86% of the vote counted. This is still a toss-up.
