Narrow GOP Majority Faces Uncertainty as Key House Races Remain Undecided

President-elect Donald Trump will assume office with a very narrow GOP majority in the House of Representatives, potentially starting with a 217-215 margin. This slim majority leaves little room for error, especially with potential resignations of GOP members joining Trump's administration. Speaker Mike Johnson has urged Trump to refrain from appointing more House members to his administration to maintain the majority. The narrow margin could complicate legislative efforts, such as extending the 2017 tax cuts, as any single Republican dissent could disrupt party-line votes.
