Pelosi Makes Her Case: A Majority Is 51 Votes By Steven T. Dennis Roll Call Staff Feb. 10, 2010 House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is pinning the blame on Republicans for a lack of bipartisanship in Congress and plans to byp them if they continue to oppose efforts to enact near-universal health care. “A constitutional majority is 51 votes,” Pelosi said in an interview Tuesday with Roll Call. “If in fact the Republicans are going to say nothing can be done except by 60 percent, then maybe we all should be elected with 60 percent. It isn’t legitimate in terms of ping legislation.”
