I started a thread about how this could be attempted back in August. Here is a link to that thread - [How might the GOP keep the House after the 2026 midterms?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-might-the-gop-keep-the-house-after-the-2026-midterms/1032259)

NY Rep Joe Morelle (D) lays it out pretty clearly in the article linked in the OP. But continuing the discussion here would be a hijack.
