House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) said Thursday that there is still “a clear pathway” for a Democratic majority in the lower chamber as votes continue to be counted nationwide.

“We still have a clear pathway to taking back the majority,” Jeffries said on Spectrum 1 News to the outlet’s Errol Louis. “Of course that runs through Arizona and Oregon and five races that are flip opportunities in California that are too close to call and too early to call.”

According to projections from Decision Desk HQ, Republicans are leading the race for control of the House with 216 seats to Democrats’ 204 as of late Thursday.

Decision Desk HQ has not yet made projections for key House races including those in Washington’s 3rd Congressional District, Oregon’s 5th Congressional District, Arizona’s 6th Congressional District and California’s 13th Congressional District.

1. I'm worried about Alaska which would put GOP at 217.

We’d have to win all the rest.

6. We haven't been truly United for quite some time.

Perhaps we’re looking at a future of the un United parts of the former United States.
