How's the House looking?

I know we held on, but did we gain seats, lose, or stay the same?

Nothing threatening control of the chamber.

3. I think we lost ... last I saw we were +12

Which had been +15 earlier in the evening.

Didn't we start at around +20? I forget ...

4. Not sure.

I know we lost one because my district in New Mexico has flipped to the Republican. Xochitl Torres, the Dem, lost.

5. Looks like a-hole Darrell Issa

may eke out a win in CA for Duncan Hunter's old seat - currently up by .1% with 45% reporting. Anything could happen but...

6. Here's a good pair of resources

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/11/03/us/elections/results-house.html?action=click&pgtype=Article&state=default&module=styln-elections-2020®ion=TOP_BANNER&context=election_recirc

Then compare it to https://cookpolitical.com/ratings/house-race-ratings to see which seats were controlled by each party.

It looks worse than it probably is (losing virtually every tossup race and quite a few that were expected to lean blue) because of uncounted mail-in ballots... but I'm guessing 8-10 seats down.
