Republican leaders are projecting confidence that they will keep control of the U.S. House as more races were decided in their favor Thursday, while Democrats insist they still see a path toward the majority and sought assurances every vote will be counted.

Although U.S. Rep. Jared Golden already gave his victory speech, the race for Maine’s 2nd Congressional District is not final. Because there was an unofficial write-in candidate, in addition to Golden and Republican state Rep.

The Maine Office of the Secretary of State says that the Congressional race in Maine's Second District will go to ranked choice voting.
