We have had more races called over the weekend.

Right now, as it stands, according to the Associated Press, Republicans have 214 seats they have won in the House. As many of our viewers know, that means they need four more in order to clinch control, keep control. How many races are left? There are 17 races left to be called around the country at this hour.

They're all over the place. There's a couple that are going to overtime, Maine and Alaska. Those are ranked-choice elections, where we're going to go into the next phase of that. There's a couple that are getting official review, potentially recounts possible in Ohio and Iowa. But the largest number still, looking at you, California, 10 races left in the Golden State.

And that will decide who wins and also the margin. So let's take a look at some of those. Here's a Republican race critical for Republican control. David Valadao, incumbent here, in House district 22. That's up here, sort of in the center of California. Right now, he's out ahead of Rudy Salas, looking good. Republicans like that.

Not as good news for Republicans, better news for Democrats in District 27. That is Northern Los Angeles County, right around there. George Whitesides, former chief of staff at NASA, is now leading. He pulled ahead over the weekend. This could go back and forth, but Democrats think they're going to hold on to this lead.
