US Election Results


The US elections held 11/6/18 included the all 435 US House seats and a third of the Senate. It also included a third of the Governorships of the States. Republicans had majorities in the House, Senate and Governorships.

There are 100 Senators in the US Senate. 96 of the seats have been “declared” 4 seats are too close to call. So far, Republicans hold 51 seats and Democrats hold 43 seats. Independents hold 2 seats. Even if all 4 undeclared seats go to the Democrats, they would only have 47 seats.

There are 435 House Reps in the US House. 412 of the seats have been “declared. So far, Democrats have 219 seats and Republicans have 193 seats. The remaining 23 seats are too close to call. But even if all 23 seats were declared for Republicans, it would only give Republicans 216 seats and Democrats would still take the House with 219 seats.

In this election, Republicans lost the House to the Democrats. Republicans increased its majority in the Senate 55 to 45. Republicans maintained majorities in the Governorships.

Democrats took the House - Democrats vote as a block to keep the Socialist Agenda moving forward. This requires that they keep socialized medicine, welfare for non-citizens, wealth redistribution schemes, open borders, bad immigration policies and identity politics. They know they need to crash the US economy in order to fully transform the US into a one-party Socialist Republic. They want government to take control of everything and we can’t afford that.

Unless House Republicans can pass laws before 2019 reducing immigration, funding the border wall and allowing cheaper health insurance, the US economic advance will be delayed for 2 years.

In 2019, Democrats will elect a House Speaker and appoint Committee Chairs. Their focus will be to attempt to win the Presidency in 2020 to keep their socialist agenda moving “forward”. But Bills passing out of the House must also pass the Senate and be signed by the President and this limits the damage.
