Adam Schiff, listed first, is the lead manager.
Just to give context, Chad Pergram points out that there were 13 House managers during Clinton’s trial in 1999.
According to Mattingly, the House will hold their vote on this in a couple of hours:
The House will vote in a couple of hours to lock in those managers and set the process to transmit the articles to the U.S. Senate.
The articles will be walked over to the Senate this evening.— Phil Mattingly (@Phil_Mattingly) January 15, 2020
