Republicans took control of Congress
According to Mehr News Agency to Quoting from AFP, the Republicans took full control of the Congress by winning the majority of seats in the US House of Representatives.
According to the announcement of this media, now the US House of Representatives has come under the control of the Republicans and taking into account that they have the majority of votes in the US House of Representatives, now they have full control of the Congress.
As the final results of the US Congressional elections, which were held at the same time as the presidential elections on November 5th (last week), continued to be determined, CBS announced that the American Republicans were able to reach a quorum by capturing 218 seats in the House of Representatives. It is necessary to achieve a majority in this congress.
“CBS” added that the estimates of this television network indicate that at the end of the counting of votes, the Republicans will be able to win between 220 and 222 seats in the House of Representatives.
According to “BBC”, although with only 2 to 4 seats beyond the required quorum, the Republican majority in the House of Representatives will be very close and somewhat fragile; But due to the victory of the Republicans in capturing the majority of votes in the Senate, now the full control of the US Congress will be in the hands of the Republicans, and from next January, when Donald Trump officially begins his second term as president, the Republicans will be able to control the two main branches of government. In their country – that is, the executive and legislative branches – approve and implement their policies more easily.
The other independent branch of the American government system – that is, the judicial system – with the presence of six conservative judges in the Supreme Court of this country, according to observers, will largely align with the Republicans.
