House prepares for early 2024 shake-up with slew of special elections
by Cami Mondeaux, Congressional Reporter

The new year will begin with a slate of special elections that could shift the balance of power in the House — even ahead of the 2024 November elections.

Several incumbents have announced their early retirements from the House, opening up a handful of seats that must be filled just as the 2024 cycle gets underway. The House must fill four seats come early next year, including three being vacated by retiring members and the one former New York Rep. George Santos occupied before lawmakers voted to expel him.

Here is a breakdown of all the special elections in the House and how they could affect the lower chamber and the 2024 ballot:

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It’s looking more and more likely to be the case after 2024

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

So probably the first time in American history, a party could lose the majority even before the election. If that happens I hope the Clown Caucus is happy for what they did.

Are you referring to the GOP members who voted to expel George Santos from Congress or those GOPers joining McCarthy's tantrum and announcing their unexpected resignations ---- following in the footsteps of the Paul Ryan movement in 2018?

I'm talking about the faction-led by the punchable Matt Gaetz. By the way, I do like Paul Ryan.
