House Republicans move ahead with leadership elections as majority yet to be decided
CBSN
Washington — House Republicans are moving forward with their leadership elections Wednesday, though majority control still hangs in the balance as a number of key races have yet to be determined.
Still, Republicans are operating as if they've secured control of the lower chamber for another two years. CBS News has characterized control of the House as lean Republican.
The election for the No. 4 leadership spot, House Republican Conference chair, is the only competitive race, after Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York was offered a role to serve in President-elect Donald Trump's Cabinet as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.
