Democrats' last House win locks in brutally small GOP majority

Democrats won the final uncalled U.S. House race in California on
Tuesday, ensuring Republicans will have a painfully miniscule majority
next year.

Why it matters: This could cause all kinds of problems for House
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and President-elect Trump as they try to
quickly pass a sweeping conservative policy agenda through Congress.

    Democrats are already formulating ways to kill party-line GOP
votes and force Republicans to pursue a bipartisan approach to
governance.

By the numbers: Gray's victory means Republicans are set to have 220
seats to Democrats' 215 when the 119th Congress is sworn in on Jan. 3.
