REP MURTHA: WE'VE GOT THE VOTES... (Huffpo)
REP MURTHA: WE'VE GOT THE VOTES...
November 15, 2006 04:58 PM

Rep. John Murtha appeared on MSNBC's Hardball with Chris Mathews to discuss his race for House Majority Leader. Mathews asked Rep. Murtha off the bat if he was going to be elected to the position.

Mathews: Thank you Mr. Murtha, let's get to the question everyone wants answered. First of all, it's a secret ballot tomorrow, right?

Rep. Murtha: Right

Mathews: Are you gonna' win?

Rep. Murtha: We are going to win. We've got the votes.

Mathews: You've got 'em?

Rep Murtha: We've got the votes.

3. They both say that, and neither one knows for sure
Because it is a secret ballot, a Congressperson can tell him they will vote for him and then do whatever they want. Whoever wins will believe that person helped him whether its true or not.
