That's the number NARAL is reporting.
NARAL also has a letter you can send to new Democratic representatives, congratulating them on their victories and letting them know you expect them to vote pro-choice. Definitely send it. A lot of these candidates had really vague responses when asked about choice during their campaigns. Simply saying they "support Roe v. Wade" doesn't guarantee they'll vote against all manner of abortion restrictions... or that they'll vote against anti-choice judicial nominees.
So write them a letter and let them know what you expect from them.
