Boehner Wins Second Term as House GOP Leader
By Alan K. Ota, CQ Staff


Minority Leader John A. Boehner , R-Ohio, won a second term Wednesday as the top House Republican by defeating Dan Lungren of California.

Boehner will lead a team that is more conservative than the outgoing roster of GOP leaders after embracing members of the Republican Study Committee for key positions.

Eric Cantor of Virginia was chosen minority whip and Mike Pence of Indiana became House Republican Conference chairman. The two RSC members were unopposed for those posts and had Boehner’s backing.

“It’s very civil in there,” said Lincoln Diaz-Balart , R-Fla., as House Republicans assembled to start organizing for the 111th Congress. Participants said there were pointed questions about the future of the GOP after Boehner and Lungren gave opening remarks of about 10 minutes apiece.
