Kevin McCarthy provided a victory speech on the now assured GOP majority in the house. Mathematical, democrats have lost the house in the lower branch of Congress.

For the all efforts against election deniers, you would expect Nancy Pelosi to recognize the failure of democrats to retain power in the house and just coincide. Thus this delay is Clinton-esce like the last time Nancy refused to give up the gavel. Questions remain on whether McCarthy will act like a child and tear up Biden’s state of the union transcript.

So far, they haven't called the House yet so no need for Nancy to concede, but it's coming.

Mathematical? Does any one have 218 for certain at that time?

Dems have something up their sleeves. This is taking way too long. I wouldn't count on them losing

I agree, it's coming, but it hasn't been called yet.

Why in the world would anyone concede before the races have been called?

What kind of meek behavior is that?

Pelosi will pass over the gavel when the time comes. McCarthy may not be the one accepting it.

There are only 44 seats left and democrats are not going to win 80% of the remaining seats. Nice try.
Will the capitol police wrestle the gavel from Pelosi’s hands?

The election is not over yet, maybe not until tomorrow.

So if she conceded now instead of tomorrow what difference does it make.

At this point, there is no reason for her to concede the House, as they haven't officially hit the majority.
Although, unless there are some serious discrepancies that appear it is all but inevitable.

But when it gets to that point, I don't expect her to concede without making some accusations of Election Fraud, and numerous Democrats lining right up behind her in agreement.
