© Greg Nash Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-N.M.) was formally sworn in as a member of the House on Monday after winning a special election to fill the seat vacated by Interior Secretary Deb Haaland House Democrats now have slightly more wiggle room for defections among their historically thin majority with Stansbury a sitting lawmaker. Democrats now hold 220 seats over Republicans 211, meaning that they can afford up to four defections and still pass legislation without any GOP support. Before Stansbury was sworn in on Monday, Democrats could lose only three of their own members on a party-line vote. ADVERTISEMENT Stansbury handily won the special election earlier this month in a race that was considered an early test of both parties strengths ahead of the 2022 midterm elections, although the Albuquerque-area district is largely urban and Democratic.
