Reps. Joaquín Castro (D-TX), Mike Doyle (D-PA), and Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.) all support the deal. Currently there are 91 Yes votes.

Obviously the New York City Area Democratic delegation has the biggest divide of any metropolitan area. The interesting fact for me is that the best area for the Deal is Brooklyn, which ironically enough if home to the largest group of Orthodox Jews outside of Israel and probably the biggest opponents of the deal. I also could see the Bronx delegation coming in strong for the Deal.

Bob Casey will vote for the deal. Disgusting. Now I regret my 2012 vote for him even more. Sad

Thank you Senator Bob Casey

Reps. Judy Chu (D-CA) and Corrine Brown (D-FL) both support the Deal.

Also Pelosi states that House Dems will uphold Obama's veto (if it even gets that far).

When Pelosi says she has the votes, she has the votes.

I'm thinking that Walter Jones and Thomas Massie will vote yes.

That would be nice.

I think they are going to get to 41, but it sounds like Coons and Manchin will not vote for a filibuster, so I don't think its going to happen.

Why wouldn't they vote for a filibuster?

Reps. Diana DeGette (D-CO) and Rick Larsen (D-WA) both support the agreement.

Really feels like the floodgates are opening.

Like I said, floodgates.

Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-FL) and Alma Adams (D-NC) support the Deal. Supporters are now up to 101 in the House!

I have been a DWS supporter since 2010, and a strong one at that since 2012, but not any longer. Like Cory Booker, and possibly Joe Manchin, I hope to see them all lose re-election.

Reps. Suzanne Bonamici (D-OR), Mark DeSaulnier (D-CA), Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX), and John Sarbanes (D-MD) all support the Deal. Democratic supporters are up to 115.

Rep. Lois Frankel (D-FL) is a no. Democratic defectors are up to 16, opponents need 43 to override an Obama veto. 27 more no votes are needed from the 57 or 47.36% undeclared Democrats (this includes leaners).

I think he is the only one to go from lean yes to no.

Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Gary Peters (D-MI), and Ron Wyden (D-OR) will all support the Deal. Democrats have the 41 votes needed to filibuster, hopefully they can get more.
