rippy38 Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Democrats appear to lose key House seats they won in 2018, fail to flip GOP targets It's a result that could see Speaker Pelosi face recriminations Democrats went into election night confident they would increase their majority in the House of Representatives -- but they appear to have lost a number of key seats that were won in 2018 while failing to flip seats held by vulnerable Republicans. House Democrats had hoped for an increase in seats, with a gain of just five seats or so making a "bad" night and a gain of 10 to 15 making a “good” night. But so far, across the board, House Democrats have consistently failed to flip seats held by vulnerable Republicans, and repeatedly lost districts Democrats flipped from red to blue in 2018. They could also stand to lose seats in New York, Michigan and California. They appear to have lost seats they picked up in Iowa, New Mexico, Florida and Oklahoma in 2018, while also losing a seat held by House Agriculture Committee Chairman Collin Peterson, D-Minn., to Republican Michelle Fischbach. They had hoped to nudge out Reps. Steve Chabot, R-Ohio, and Ann Wagner, R-Mo., as well as pick up the seats held by retiring Reps. Susan Brooks, R-Ind., and Pete Olson, R-Texas. But so far, hardly any races have broken in the Democrats’ direction. Rather than expanding on their 16-17 seat advantage in the House, it appears Democrats will actually see that margin shrink. This means that, at best for Democrats, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., holds a small majority. That could produce echoes of 2016 as some Democrats questioned Pelosi’s leadership and delayed leadership elections. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/democrats-house-seats-2018-gop-targets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her peers in the House have to give her the yay or nay on whether she holds the gavel or not... and she has not had a good two years or election. I hope they shove that gavel up her retched old ass.

You don't seem to have a grasp on how politics works. When Nancy Pelosi had the votes necessary, she cut some vulnerable House members lose, so they could not have ads run against them in their reelection bids in conservative districts. She is a master of politics and puts electing members above her own vanity. You all are too used to dealing with Donald J Trump. LOL.

Bill There was a movement among the Democrats in the House to keep her having the position. For a while leading up to the vote, it looked like she might not get it, but she made some promises and patted some backs, and got the needed votes. There is a growing coalition of House Democrats that think she is no longer a good fit for the party as Speaker. You asked for the link, and I provided it. Sorry about that.
