House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is confident she will return as speaker when the new Democratic majority takes over in the House, but the leaders of the Congressional Progressive Caucus are not yet saying whether they will support her leadership bid.

When asked if the caucus supports Pelosi’s leadership bid in a press call on Wednesday, November 7, and if leaders will try to convince the incoming members who promised not to support her throughout the midterms to back her anyway, caucus co-chair Mark Pocan said he’s going to keep his options open and make sure he’s leveraging his power to assure progressives are well represented in leadership.

Dozens of Democratic candidates running in tight midterm races voiced their opposition to a Pelosi speakership. Though many of the candidates lost, a handful of incoming members, including Jason Crow of Colorado, Jahana Hayes of Connecticut and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, have called for a new generation of leadership. And Pelosi has little room for error: She needs a majority of the full House, or 218 votes, to win the speakership. On Thursday night, Politico reported that at least 10 Democrats had promised to oppose her on the floor, meaning that as final ballots are counted, Pelosi needs the majority to hold at least 228 members.

“And I would say ditto to that,” said Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., who serves as vice chair of the caucus. “I’m looking to run to be the next co-chair of the Progressive Caucus, and so I think it’s very important that we talk to our members and that we really make sure that our progressive priorities are going to be represented by our leadership on all levels.”

Pocan said that the caucus may have some sense of direction by next week. “I know this is the story you’ve all been waiting to write, but I’m going to wait until I get back and talk to members and have an idea of who’s running for what and what spots are open. And hopefully, by next week, we’ll be able to give you better, more specific answers,” he said.

The Congressional Progressive Caucus demurring on Pelosi is a turnabout from her first election as party leader, when she was the clear progressive favorite in a much more conservative caucus. The lack of vocal support comes as competing factions within the incoming caucus are jockeying for position.

Democratic leaders are hoping that the calls on the campaign trail for “new leadership” won’t be renewed on the House now that campaign season is over. On election night, Rep. Steny Hoyer, the minority whip and Pelosi’s No. 2, told The Intercept that he met just last week with incoming Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, and that he is comfortable that she will fit in well with the caucus.
