With 20+ seats left to call, the democrats have taken the house. They have already promised to begin acting as a check on presidential power.

The popular vote was 7-8% democrat, exactly as averages of polls predicted.

What was different was money. Democrats had a huge money advantage. None of this is good for republicans as far as I can see.
