    There's no problem with that statement. Of the seats which were decided, about 80% returned to the same legislator. Just for clarification sake by the way, regarding the small fraction you mentioned, almost 90% of all Congressional seats were up for election last time (1/3 of the 100 Senate seats plus all 435 House seats). Besides, "huge win" and a "LOT" are opinions; it only took a few seats change to shift the majority in the house from democrat to republican because the majority was so slim to begin with. 80% retention is what it is
