4. I'd welcome her WITH OPEN ARMS!! An extra seat is an extra seat... and that puts us closer to a majority.

It would be nice if she voted with us on important issues, but even if she didn't vote with us... we would be closer to (or actually IN the majority) and Johnson would be out... Jeffries would be in.

Rather than focusing on how she'd vote or whether she'd be a good ally for the Democratic party is secondary right now. We need to get control of the House... and if she switched to become a Democrat, that would put is closer to that VERY important and VERY meaningful change.
