Battle for House Control
July 17th, 2008 by Jim Shella under Jim Shella's Political Blog
Indiana House Minority Leader Brian Bosma is confident he can be Speaker again. He declared this morning that, if the election were held today, there would be 50 Republicans, 49 Democrats, and one race up for grabs in the House.
In that scenario, a Mitch Daniels win in the race for governor would give Bosma the Speaker’s chair even if the one race up for grabs went to the Democrats.
“That is their dream situation,” says Justin Moed, field director of House campaigns for the Democrats. Moed says he expects the Democrats to win 53 or 54 seats.
