At the time of publication, Johnson is still the Speaker of the House. Initially, he appeared to have failed to secure the Speakership position after The Hill reported he had a narrow margin for error. At 1:30 p.m. ET, Johnson did not have the votes to keep his place as Speaker with 216 votes up against 215 votes for Hakeem Jeffries. Moreover, Thomas Massie voted for Tom Emmer, Ralph Norman voted for Jim Jordan and Keith Self voted for Byron Donalds.

However, CNN reported that Johnson managed to remain the Speaker after Self andNorman flipped their votes in support of Johnson.

How Many Republicans Are in the House?

There is a total of 435 seats in the House of Representatives. Following the 2024 election, Republicans won the majority of the House with 219 seats, while the Democrats have 215 in the House.
