  • 2018 Midterms Analysis and 116Th Congress Overview
    2018 Midterms Analysis and 116th Congress Overview CAPITOL COUNSEL, LLC | 700 13th Street NW | Washington, DC 20005 202.861.3200 1 Well, we survived another election…. Unlike 2016 when all the polls were wrong, the 2018 midterms turned out mostly as predicted—the House of Representatives flipped to Democratic control, and the Senate remained in Republican hands, with the Republicans likely expanding their majority. There are a number of races that are still too close to call but at the time of this publication: U.S. Senate: 51 Republicans to 45 Democrats 4 Races Outstanding-Montana, Arizona, Florida* and Mississippi (MS run off will occur on November 27) Republicans flipped Democratic seats in North Dakota, Missouri, and Indiana Democrats flipped a Republican seat in Nevada *Florida Senate race may go to a recount U.S. House of Representatives: 220 Democrats to 193 Republicans 20 Races Outstanding Democrats have currently gained 27 seats (they needed 23 to flip the House) Though it is too soon to tell exactly what the divided Congress will mean on every issue and for every committee, this document provides Capitol Counsel’s outlook for the lame duck session as well as a few key issues for next Congress—including Taxes, Health Care and Financial Services. 2 3 Outlook: Lame Duck Though the House has flipped, the Congress returns next week for its lame duck session under current control. There is little time between now and January (when factoring in Thanksgiving and leadership elections), so Congress will likely focus on bills that are must-pass, where there is a statutory deadline.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2018 Remarks at a "Make America Great Again" Rally in Duluth, Minnesota June 20, 2018 Audience members. U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! The President. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much, Duluth. Thank you very much. I am thrilled to be back in the great State of Minnesota, with truly some of the most incredible people anywhere on Earth. You know that. And you know, I hate to bring this up— [laughter]—but we came this close to winning the State of Minnesota. And in 2½ years, it's going to be really easy, I think. [Applause] Really easy. It's been many, many decades since a Republican did that, and I thought I was going to do it. I needed one more visit, one more speech. That's why never give up. Never, ever give up. One more speech. No, we're very proud of Minnesota. Let me also say congratulations to the Bulldogs on winning the NCAA Championship hockey tournament. Wow, that's a big deal. Right in this arena. This is where they play, right? Boy, I hear they're a great team. And how many are going to the NHL? [Laughter] How many? Two? Three? That's a lot. They're going to do it. Great team. Thank you. Great team. The Bulldogs. So we're honored to be joined tonight by many wonderful Republican leaders, including our incredible House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy. Kevin, come up please. Where's Kevin? Where is he? Kevin. He sends a lot of money this way, I want to tell you.
