[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]another one bites the dust [twitter]https://twitter.com/scottwongDC/status/1771233569072873912[/twitter][/quote] This is like the slowest motion train wreck I’ve ever seen happen. [/quote] So what are the numbers now? 217-213, right?[/quote] Yup from Sahil Kapur NBC’s Hill guy: House math Ken Buck's last day is today: 218 Rs, 213 Ds Mike Gallagher is leaving 4/19: 217 Rs, 213 Ds That's a ONE-VOTE GOP majority. They cannot afford a second defection to pass measures without Democrats.[/quote] OK, I'm stupid, but 217 - 213 is 4. That would be a 3 vote majority, no?[/quote] Only if those who do not Yay, vote "present". Most of the time those who do not vote "Yay" vote Nay, in which case each vote essentially swings two votes (one positive to one negative).[/quote]
