Democrats hold 106 of the 180 state House seats, but the GOP is targeting about 10 rural Democrats in the House to switch, Republican officials said.

Anybody got any idea what the final lineup in the state House is going to be? If the Republicans end up with at least working majorities in the two houses, can they redistrict?

"Anybody got any idea what the final lineup in the state House is going to be? If the Republicans end up with at least working majorities in the two houses, can they redistrict?"

Gut feeling says that the Republicans will have effective control of the House along with the Conservative Democrats. The Democrats will still control the house as far as the speakership and the committees go.

From what I understand, the Governor-elect can call a special session of the legislature at will and call for redistricting. He pretty much ran on a platform that he would do that. They presumably have the votes in the Senate right now to pass a new redistricting plan that puts geographical areas in the same district, and may have enough to have effective control of the House to redistrict the huge mess that Speaker Murphy and King Roy made with that map.
