Democrats have expressed optimism that they will retake control of the House in this November's midterm elections. The party needs to pick up 25 seats to do so.

A Real Clear Politics average of generic ballot polls show Democrats with a nearly 7-point advantage over Republicans.

Despite talk of a "blue wave" in the midterms, there has been chatter within the Democratic caucus over whether Pelosi should lead the party moving forward.

Pelosi, who has led House Democrats since 2003, faced a challenge for leadership after the 2016 election, but retained her position despite the bid from Rep.

“In reality, next fall is going to come down to whether or not you want to reinstitute Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House,” John Rogers, the head of the House GOP’s campaign arm, told The Hill last year.

Several House Democratic candidates have vowed that they will not support Pelosi if they are sent to Washington.
