Politico reported that Republicans face a contest to lead what its headline calls a "decimated" House GOP, with Jim Jordan and Steve Scalise as the two figures in the race. According to Politico's summary, both men are close allies of the president, which the outlet said suggests no clean break is imminent. The full report is available in Politico's report on the race to lead the House GOP.

The summary of the Politico report does not give the number of seats the party lost, the timing of the contest, or any other candidates, so those details are not reported here.

The Hill reported that House Democrats are "champing at the bit" over who will lead their efforts against the Trump administration's education agenda in the next Congress. Its summary describes the contest as a three-way race.

According to the summary of The Hill's report on the Democratic education race, Democratic Reps. Suzanne Bonamici (Ore.) and Jahana Hayes (Conn.) are both challenging current ranking member Bobby Scott (D-Va.) for chair of the House Education and Workforce Committee. The summary ends mid-sentence, so further details of the contest are not available from it.

The two reports cover separate contests in different parties, one for House Republican leadership and one for the top Democratic post on the education committee. The summaries do not link the two races.
