Prediction: GOP poised for gains in House, Senate Tuesday, June 1, 2021 | Chad Groening (OneNewsNow.com) Spanish A conservative activist, looking toward elections in 2022, predicts there is a good chance the legislative powers in Washington, D.C. will swing back toward Republicans who have learned how to fight back. During a weekend appearance on Fox News, Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy suggested Democrats on Capitol Hill are worried. “They know they're going to lose,” he told the news channel. “They have the smallest majority that they've had in a hundred years." In the House, Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi is presiding over a chamber with an eight-seat majority, and the Senate is split 50-50 with Vice President Kamala Harris serving as a tie-breaking vote.
