Do margins matter? What a Republican House of Representatives could look like.

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

In this year’s midterm elections, Republicans took control of the House of Representatives - but it will be a very slim margin. It doesn’t leave much room for absences, vacated seats, or disagreement if they want to get legislation passed. How could such a tight margin play out, especially with a Democratic president and Democrats still controlling the Senate? We talk with Dr. Benjamin Dworkin, Director of the Rowan Institute for Public Policy and Citizenship at Rowan University, about what Republicans could accomplish in the House and how precarious their majority is.
