    From the article: “Roughly 40 Democrats would need to vote for someone else in order to prevent Jeffries from taking the gavel.”

    From another article: “Democrats have now flipped over 40 House seats.”

      Yeah but how many will hold their vote against Jeffries? You count AOC out, can’t believe she even thinking of running for president. She has no spin and sadly not the squad she once was.
