Meanwhile, Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York expressed her intention to vote for Pelosi.

In a tweet, Ocasio-Cortez wrote, “All the challenges to Leader Pelosi are coming from the right, in an apparent effort to make the party even more conservative and bent toward corporate interests.”

Hard pass. So long as Leader Pelosi remains the most progressive candidate for Speaker, she can count on my support.”

Earlier this week, President Donald Trump said Pelosi “deserves” to be the House Speaker. He also stated that he can help the California Democrat get as many votes to get the position.
