Revised Projections From Steve Kornacki Show Democrats Could Retain Control Of The House

An already bad midterm election for Republicans could be on the verge of turning disastrous, according to MSNBC elections expert Steve Kornacki, who reported Saturday that some surprises in key House races could result in Democrats retaining control of the House of Representatives.

Mediaite reports that Kornacki revealed his new projections with host Ali Velshi as new updates were being released out of Maricopa County in Arizona.

“The decision desk has just revised its estimate for where the House will land, and look at this,” he said as the graphics updated. “218 seats needed for a majority in the House, and we are now estimating that Republicans will finish with 219.”

Velshi whistled at the shift in numbers as Kornacki continued.

“And I would stress the margin for error here is plus or minus four seats,” said Kornacki. “So the Republican range could still extend into the low 220s, but it could also fall under 218. Meaning that Democrats still very much have a possibility of retaining control of the House.”

“So the House very much in play according to our model.”

21 House districts remain uncalled, and Democrats only need 15 to keep control. Republicans need victory in 7 districts to take over leadership of the House.

Buckle up. The 2022 election isn’t over with just yet.
