Daily News | Who will lead the Pennsylvania House? Lawmakers will soon decide as power struggle continues.
HARRISBURG — Lawmakers in Pennsylvania’s state House are scheduled to elect a new speaker Tuesday. But unlike in most legislative sessions, it’s not clear who it will be, what party they’ll be from, or even how long they’ll serve.
After a dozen years with the state House under firm Republican control, November’s midterm elections brought Democrats. But since then, the question of which party will actually have power in the new session has veered into unprecedented territory. All questions won’t be answered on Jan. 3, but at least a few will, including which party’s candidate will have enough support to helm the chamber until at least February, and whether either party will manage to give themselves a bureaucratic upper hand — at least temporarily — via the rules process.in November, but on Jan. 3, Republicans are expected to have 101 members to Democrats’ 99 — a functional majority.
