Traditionally serving as assistant leaders, whips are mainly responsible for counting heads and rounding up party members for votes and quorum calls, and they occasionally stand in for the majority or minority leaders in their absence.
The Majority Whip is a position in United States (U.S.) politics that's delegated to an elected official belonging to the majority party in the House of Representatives and the Senate. Both the Republican and Democratic parties use a Majority Whip. Minority Whips are also used by the party holding fewer seats in one or both houses of Congress.
In the United States Congress, the Whip is responsible for informing party members of upcoming votes and keeping track of their voting behavior. The Whip is usually part of the leadership team of the party and is appointed by the Speaker of the House or the Senate Majority Leader.
