Democrats have flipped over 40 House seats. Here's the breakdown.
Democrats won control of the House on Tuesday by flipping more than three dozen Republican-held seats, picking up perennial swing districts and seats that were once considered deep red.
What the coverage shows
CBS News centers the flipped House districts themselves, saying Democrats won control of the chamber by taking more than two dozen Republican-held seats, including swing districts and seats once seen as deep red. The Guardian US frames the same midterm results more broadly as a live results page for Senate, House and governor races across all 50 states. The Guardian’s extract adds that many seats were still to come in and points readers to visual analysis, which CBS does not mention.
