AP declares Republicans have won majority of seats in US House

WASHINGTON — Republicans have won enough seats to control the US House, completing the party’s sweep into power and securing their hold on US government alongside President-elect Donald Trump.

A House Republican victory in Arizona, alongside a win in slow-counting California earlier Wednesday, gives the GOP the 218 House victories that make up the majority. Republicans earlier gained control of the Senate from Democrats.
