Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, said Sunday she believes the party has a “50-50” shot to keep control of the House of Representatives during the upcoming midterm elections. McDaniel’s comments, made during an interview with CBS’ “Face the Nation,” reflect what’s expected to be a fierce challenge between Republicans and Democrats in November. “We’ve had an unprecedented amount of retirements and that has made it harder in some of these swing districts. But right now I’d say it’s 50-50,” McDaniel told CBS’ Margaret Brennan. It’s one of the highest in history for a president from his own party,” McDaniel said.
