House Democrats reelected their leadership team, selecting Speaker Nancy Pelosi to head the party and run for a fourth term with the gavel in January despite election loses that could cost the party more than a dozen seats.

Pelosi, 80, will run for speaker the first week in January when the House convenes for the 117th Congress. The entire House, including Republicans, vote for the speaker, so she’ll have very few votes to spare within her own party to win the approval of 218 members.
