众议院议长约翰逊称对中期选举结果失望：誓言2028年夺回众议院
路易斯安那州 Shreveport——美国众议院议长 Mike Johnson 11月3日选举夜在 Shreveport 会议中心的 Captain Shreve 宴会厅向支持者讲话，称对共和党在中期选举中失去众议院多数席位的结果感到失望，但誓言共和党将在2028年夺回众议院。Johnson 本人当晚以58.5%的得票率赢得连任、开启第六个任期，民主党对手 Conrad Cable 得票约23%。
Johnson 对人群说：「致每一位对今晚结果失望的美国人——我也失望，但我们永不气馁，因为我们生活在世界上最伟大的国家。」他表示，共和党从竞选第一天就知道，要保住众议院多数，就必须打破一个多世纪以来的中期选举历史规律——现任总统所在政党几乎总会在中期选举中丢失席位。
「共和党人不会被一次选举的结果吓住，」Johnson 说，「我们的做法是加倍努力。我们将继续推进我们的常识议程与让美国再次伟大的愿景。2028年，我们将夺回众议院，把这项工作完成。」他同时提醒，西部一些州的投票站尚未关闭、计票仍在进行，「这将是一个漫长的夜晚」，最终结果明朗后他将在接下来几天里再作详细说明。
据《纽约时报》估算，民主党有望拿下约254个众议院席位，远超218席的多数门槛；多家媒体预计民主党将同时控制国会两院。Johnson 在本竞选周期为共和党候选人筹款逾5.26亿美元，但共和党仍在 Florida 等州丢掉多个经重划选区后本应占优的席位。一名共和党高层幕僚向《华盛顿观察家报》形容当晚结果对共和党是「一场灾难」、比预想更糟。
Johnson 说，能够担任第56任众议院议长是「我一生的荣幸，这从来不是我们渴望或预料会担任的职位」。他未确认自己在少数党中的下一步安排；民主党方面，众议院少数党领袖 Hakeem Jeffries 被普遍看好将接任议长。
House Speaker Johnson Says He Is Disappointed by Midterm Results: Vows to Take Back the House in 2028
Shreveport, Louisiana — U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson told supporters on election night, November 3, at the Captain Shreve Ballroom of the Shreveport Convention Center that he was disappointed by the Republican Party's loss of its House majority in the midterm elections, but vowed that Republicans would take back the House in 2028. Johnson himself won a sixth term that night with 58.5 percent of the vote, against about 23 percent for Democrat Conrad Cable.
"To every American disappointed by tonight's results — I'm disappointed too, but we are never discouraged, because we live in the greatest nation in the world," Johnson told the crowd. He said Republicans had known from the first day of the election that keeping the House majority would require defying more than a century of midterm history, in which the sitting president's party almost always loses seats.
"Republicans will not be deterred by the outcome of one election," Johnson said. "We double down. We will continue pressing forward with our agenda of common sense and our vision to make America great again. And come 2028, we will take back the House, and we will finish this job." He cautioned that polls had not yet closed in some western states and counting was still under way — "It'll be a long night" — and said he would speak in more detail about the midterms in the coming days once final results were known.
The New York Times estimated that Democrats would pick up about 254 House seats, well above the 218 needed for a majority, and several outlets projected that Democrats would control both chambers of Congress. Johnson raised more than $526 million for Republican candidates during the cycle, but the party still lost several House races in states such as Florida that had been redistricted to favor Republicans. A senior Republican leadership aide told the Washington Examiner that Tuesday's results were a "disaster" for the party and worse than Republicans had expected.
Johnson said serving as the 56th Speaker of the House had been "the honor of my life, not a position we ever aspired to or expected to have." He did not confirm his plans in the minority; on the Democratic side, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is widely expected to take the speakership.
