Meanwhile in the House, Democrats won 230 seats and are currently ahead in two races. Speaker Dennis Hastert announced he will not seek the Republican House leadership when Congress re-convenes next year. Ten House races remain too close to call. In one closely-watched race, Republican Congressmember Heather Wilson is holding a 1300 vote lead over state Attorney General Patricia Madrid in New Mexico. Election officials say around 3,700 votes have yet to be counted.
