House Democrats Aim for a Big Majority

“Democrats are making moves to try to secure a big enough House majority to sideline blocs of both progressive and moderate holdouts who could cause constant headaches for Hakeem Jeffries if he becomes speaker next year,” Politico reports.

”Democrats are investing in deep-red districts that could pad a future majority, banking on what appears to be a strong political environment to not just win but win big. That would strengthen Jeffries’ hand.”

Said one senior House Democrat: “Another five-or-so-seat buffer would be a game-changer.”
