House Democrats selected current minority leader Nancy Pelosi to continue her job when the next session of Congress convenes in January, fighting off a challenge for her post from Ohio representative Tim Ryan.
Pelosi won by a margin of 71 votes, 134-63, according to reports, meaning she will retain the leadership of her party in the House she has held since 2003. She has alternatively been minority leader and speaker, depending on the chamber’s majority.
