PALM BEACH, FL – Speaker Mike Johnson released the following statement on the latest results for the U.S. House of Representatives:

"This historic election has proven that a majority of Americans are eager for secure borders, lower costs, peace through strength, and a return to common sense. As more results come in it is clear that, as we have predicted all along, Republicans are poised to have unified government in the White House, Senate, and House.

"House Republicans have been successful in securing critical flips in swing states including Pennsylvania and Michigan, while our battle-tested incumbents have secured re-election from coast to coast. The latest data and trends indicate that when all the votes are tabulated, Republicans will have held our majority, even though we faced a map with 18 Biden-won seats.

"We will continue to monitor the results and ensure every legal ballot is counted throughout this process. I look forward to working with President Trump and a Republican Senate to deliver as Speaker of the House on the mandate entrusted to us by the American people."
