Democrats Secure Key Win, Narrowing GOP's House Majority

TL;DR Summary
Democrats have won the final uncalled US House race in California, leaving Republicans with a narrow majority of 220 seats to Democrats' 215 in the 435-seat chamber. This outcome limits the Democrats' leverage in Congress, while Republicans may face challenges in passing legislation due to their slim majority. The victory in California's 13th district by Democrat Adam Gray over Republican John Duarte was by fewer than 200 votes. Meanwhile, President-elect Trump plans significant actions in his first 100 days, including mass deportations, with limited congressional oversight expected for at least two years.
