@eshwayri@mastodon.cedar-republic.com Oh wow. I actually had no idea their majority was this big. Had not yet checked the actual numbers. Sadly, yes, that likely changes the game in favour of Jeffries.
It does not alter my earlier point though. If they fail to oust him it shows us the clear direction the House wants to take this and it's not the right path.
As for AOC, if her vote does not make a difference I can see why she would make that choice but at the same time she has been wavering on several things the last year or so and it hasn't served her well in people's perception of being a principled leader.

@thisislieven@c.im I think AOC will either run for president or senate to replace Schumer. I think the latter is much more likely. The 2028 race is going to be very crowded. She definitely has a shot at it, but there are some really good candidates so it will be hard. Whatever she does, I think she realizes she has a much better shot at it if she's on the good side of at least the House leadership.
