Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) beat back a challenge from Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) to win her party’s re-election to continue serving as House Democratic leader in the next Congress, the Wall Street Journal reports.
“Mrs. Pelosi prevailed despite concerns from some rank-and-file Democrats that she represented an outdated approach that neglected to see the party’s failure to connect with voters in the Midwest and South, particularly the white working-class voters who flocked to Donald Trump on Election Day and probably provided the margin for him to defeat Hillary Clinton.”
