  1. This could be the ballgame.

  2. Rush and Harris both represent the 1st Congressional District. I assume the vote is not 1 vote per committee person but the weighted vote so it’s hard to handicap without that. But I would guess the 1st district carries a lot of weight.
    And does anyone know if you need 50% or just whoever has the most if it becomes a three way or more race?

  6. Castro is well position. Robin and Harris need Castro to win as she has people committed to her and has split the vote. Next few days should be interesting.

  7. I agree with Cook. Expect Castro and the Latino Caucus to play queen-maker by the end of this.
