Hakeem Jeffries gets the majority of his dreams
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) is set to preside over a commanding Democratic majority after his party swept districts President Trump carried by double digits. Why it matters: Democrats' landslide win will make it much, much easier for the likely next speaker to secure the gavel wit
The Hill
What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story around Hakeem Jeffries and a projected House Democratic majority, with The Hill focusing on his remarks after Democrats were projected to win the House and Axios on the scale of the majority he is set to inherit. Axios is alone in using the “majority of his dreams” framing and in emphasizing how the win could ease his path to the speakership.
