Google election results is showing:

220 R / 215 D with 218 needed for majority.

CA 13 - Flipped - R to D.
CA 45 - Flipped - R to D.
OR 5 - Flipped - R to D.

Currently, the makeup of the House is:

    Not much because anything that starts in the House then moves to the Senate.

    So, say you get a 290 vote super majority on a new Constitutional Amendment, it then has to go to the Senate which is likely to flip Republican and kill anything the House proposes.

      So for the supermajority to be effective, the Democrats must also have the Senate and 26 states must be Democratic for the constitutional amendment to become a reality. Right?
