This is going to be a major topic in the next two years. Here is general information.

Regardless how the court cases turn out in the Presidential race, the Republicans will be flipping up between nine and fourteen seats in the House. The current leans have it eleven seats with two extremely close races remaining. Giving both of those to Nancy for Christmas, the next Congress will be 224 D - 211 R, a paper-thin thirteen vote margin. Reapportionment could wipe that out, without even starting the gerrymandering.
Below is a two part article on the way the various states look to be settling out. Their final tally is -6 D, +6 R, which would leave Democrats with a single vote majority.
