In the 2018 midterm elections, Democrats flipped 40 House seats, with 31 in districts Donald Trump won, demonstrating that strategic seat flipping is achievable even in Republican-leaning districts; this historical pattern suggests Democrats can regain House control with a fraction of the effort required in 2018.

Jeffries predicts BIG Dem midterm winAdded:
You ultimately lost this and you take personal >> Who lost?
>> Who lost? Did the voters lose?
>> Democrats.
>> Did the voters lose?
>> Do you take personal responsibility for investing so much time and resources, tens of millions of dollars, and ultimately foolless effort?
>> We did the right thing. And this effort is not over. It's just getting started.
And by the way, come back to me on November 4th when Democrats have taken back control of the House of Representatives. That's ultimately going to be, you know, what matters. What do the American people, what we are going to win the House of Representatives? I'm telling you that right now. I've been telling you that from the very beginning. And by the way, what math what math are are are are people focused on when they think about the electoral environment that we're in? When Democrats took the House back in 2018, and at minimum, we're in a 2018 environment.
When Democrats took the House back, we had to flip 24 seats in 2018.
24 seats, which people said was impossible to do.
We didn't just flip 24 seats in 2018. We flipped 40.
And of those 40 seats, 31 were in districts that Donald Trump had just won.
In this particular instance, we started out this Congress needing to flip three. When it's all said and done, Republicans at best will add a handful of gerrymandered seats to that total.
when it's all said and done.
So, I think what that means is that we just have to flip a fraction of the seats that we flipped in 2018. A fraction of the seats that we flipped in 2018. And we're in the majority. Hey,
