Regardless...Democrats can huff and puff but the fact is - but the House will remain standing.
For example - New York can't make a change effective before 2028. California flipped most of the remaining Repub seats during the endless counting of the last election. Not really a deal - Californians are going to have to get tired enough to do something about it - or the census/deportations might pave the way, but Newsome can threaten to blow the house down all he wants...it is a non-starter.
On the Republican side...Repubs hold 30 of the 50 states. Ohio is pretty much going to happen - so will Missouri and if Kansas joins then there is little doubt that the Kansas City stronghold will bust wide open toward a GOP pick up. Louisiana is on the brink -through litigation (again thank Elias) - of actually losing a democrat seat.
Probably take more than a democratic governor to make a determination - at least for sure in Kansas. What matters is how each state legislature is structured (which party has control) and even then...I doubt at this point there is enough time to get all the i's crossed and the t's dotted to have any impact on 2026.
Things generally flip in the mid-term...but this time...it does not look good for the left. They can't seem to get out of their own way. And Elias seems to have run his course. We'll see.
