NOTE: For months after the Dec. 9, 2018 elections, two House seats were in dispute and/or too close to call, one of which (in NC) the Democrats won in a special election after the Republican candidate withdrew in the midst of fraud allegations. As of September, 2019, one seat is held by an independent. | ||
