REUTERS: House Democrat sees 25-30 'yes' votes on trade bill

U.S. Representative Henry Cuellar said he expected 25 to 30 fellow Democrats to approve fast track trade authority in a vote on Friday in the House of Representatives.

"My guess has always been, I said this a month ago, that we'll be between 25 and 30," he said on Thursday when asked how many Democrats would support the fast-track authority that would clear the way for a sweeping Pacific rim trade deal.
