Democrats projected to win House and Senate in midterms, handing Trump a major loss
Per CNN, CBS and CBC live coverage, Democrats were projected to win more than 250 House seats and to reach the 51-seat Senate threshold after the November 3 midterms, with some races (including Alaska and Mississippi) still uncalled. Schumer said Democrats had won the Senate. Counts differed between outlets and were still moving; final tallies pending.
