It will be down to only a 3 House Democratic margin for House Speaker Pelosi until the 3 people Biden is hiring for his admin are replaced….The 3 moved up are from safe Democratic districts…Pelosi will only have a 6 Democrats seat majority for 2 years…Not one Republican House candidate lost their seat…A LOT of Democrats did from their 2018 ‘blue wave ‘gains….
With President-elect Joe Biden choosing Rep. Deb Haaland as his nominee for interior secretary, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will have only a three-seat vote margin for her Democratic majority heading into the 117th Congress in a Biden administration.
This comes after Democrats lost incumbents across the country and failed to unseat a single House Republican in the November elections.
Now Democrats’ problems have been exacerbated, since Biden picked three House Democrats — Reps. Marcia Fudge of Ohio, Cedric Richmond of Louisiana and Haaland of New Mexico — to serve in his administration.
While all three members are from safe Democratic districts, it will take time for them to be replaced. What already was a thin margin may now be down to just a handful of votes…..
