The Democrats have secured a majority in the US House of Representatives, as vote counting continues after Tuesday's midterm elections.
The party has won 240 seats, passing the 218 needed for a majority, according to Anadolu Agency. Republicans held the House before the vote.
The result caps a sweeping Democratic night, and it changes the balance of power in Washington: the new House will be able to block, investigate and legislate against the Trump administration for the rest of its term.
