House Democrats Win At Least 254 Seats, Jeffries Predicts Near 260

The scale of the Democratic House majority is the real story here, not the seat count itself: a margin near 260 would give party leadership far more room to set the chamber's agenda without depending on narrow vote-by-vote coalitions. For crypto and RWA markets, the practical question is what a larger Democratic caucus means for committee composition and which lawmakers shape digital-asset legislation, since committee leadership and floor scheduling are where policy direction gets set. Whether the final tally lands near the projected figure, and how the incoming majority organizes its relevant committees, is the open question worth watching.
