GOP 1 Shy of Majority, Lead 4 of Final 15 Races Too Close to Call

By    |   Tuesday, 15 November 2022 11:42 AM EST

There are 15 House of Representative races still too close to call — mostly in Democrat-run state elections.

Republicans, who have recorded a net gain thus far of nine seats, have won 217 House races, according to Newsmax's latest projections. Democrats have clinched 203. So, with 15 remaining, Democrats would have to go sweep every one of the races.

Here are the four races in which Republicans are leading:

  1. Colorado District 3 — Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., leading Democrat Adam Frisch by 1,122 votes.
  2. California District 27 — Rep. Mike Garcia, R-Calif., leads by 13,167 votes.
  3. California District 22 — Rep. David Valadao, R-Calif., leads by more than 5 points.
  4. California District 3 — Republican Kevin Kiley leads by almost 6 points.

Here are 11 races where Democrats are leading:

  1. Alaska's lone House seat — Democrat Mary Peltola leads Republicans Sarah Palin and Nick Begich in the ranked-choice voting format, which would need Begich or Palin voters to have the other ranked No. 2 on their ballot by a vast majority. That will not be decided until Nov. 23.
  2. Maine District 2 — Rep. Jared Golden, D-Maine, leads Bruce Poliquin by more than 3 points in a race to be determined on ranked-choice voting.
  3. Oregon District 6 — Democrat Andrea Salinas leads Republican Mike Erickson by less than 3 points.
  4. California District 13 — Democrat Adam Gray leads Republican John Duarte trails by 761 votes.
  5. California District 49 — Rep. Mike Levin, D-Calif., leads Republican Brian Maryott by almost 5 points.
  6. California District 9 — Rep. Josh Harder, D-Calif., leads Republican Tom Patti by more than 12 points.
  7. California District 21 — Rep. Jim Costa, D-Calif., leads Republican Michael Maher by almost 9 points.
  8. California District 16 — Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-Calif., leads by more than 16 points.
  9. California District 6 — Rep. Ami Bera, D-Calif., leads by more than 12 points.
  10. California District 15 — Democrat Kevin Mullin leads by more than 12 points.
  11. California District 47 – Rep. Katie Porter, D-Calif., leads Republican Scott Baugh by 2,891 votes.
