Tennessee, North Carolina and Minnesota still have House contests too close to call, with Democrats narrowly ahead in districts Harry Enten describes as heavily Republican. The question in CNN's update is no longer whether Democrats will have a majority, but how much larger it could become.
Joining Erin Burnett, Enten walks through Tennessee's fourth district, North Carolina's fifth and Minnesota's first. His point is about political geography as much as the unfinished count: these are places where a close Democratic challenge is itself notable. Posted today, the segment has drawn roughly 564,000 views in its opening hours.
Mississippi supplies the Senate uncertainty. Scott Colom holds a narrow lead over Republican incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith, but the contest remains uncalled. Enten highlights Colom's support among white voters, about a quarter of that electorate, as an important part of his performance. A victory would make him Mississippi's first Black senator since Reconstruction.
Mississippi Democratic Party chair Cheikh Taylor tells Burnett he expects a Colom victory within the next couple of days. That is the party chair's assessment, not a race call.
The broadcast then moves from unfinished contests to someone preparing to take office. Speaking with Laura Coates, Arizona congresswoman-elect JoAnna Mendoza credits her flipped border-district seat to a focus on household costs, healthcare access and opposition to cuts to SNAP and Medicaid.
Mendoza offers tentative support for Hakeem Jeffries as speaker, saying leaders deserve an opportunity to succeed or fail. On another question facing the incoming House, she is unequivocal: she would vote to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth if the matter reaches the floor, citing military families' concerns about the Iran conflict.
