Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi says Democrats will
maintain control of the House in 2020, saying she will have the necessary seats
secured by November.
In an interview
with The Washington Post, Pelosi said she will have the majority of the House
fully controlled by November of this year, one year ahead of the 2020 presidential
elections, saying “I’m going to have our races won by this November.” Pelosi
also threatened Republicans, saying they will rethink running after realizing
how much money is being spent to run against Democratic candidates.
“It’s going to cost you millions of dollars, to win or
lose. And if you win — say you win — you’re in the minority,” Pelosi continued.
Pelosi predicted
she would be elected as the next speaker of the House before the vote
in January, despite Democratic Reps. Kathleen Rice of New York, Seth Moulton of
Massachusetts, Filemon Vela of Texas and Tim Ryan of Ohio, who called for
Pelosi to relinquish
her leadership role.
The California Democrat has been the biggest
fundraiser for Democratic candidates.
