English term or phrase: withstand (so many strictly partisan votes)
なかなかよい訳が浮かびません。どなたか案がありましたらぜひお聞かせください。

That said, if liberal and moderate Democrats are able to strike an agreement, the strength of the Democratic majority suggests that there is a good shot of getting a climate change bill out of the committee by May or June. In the full House, a strong, unified Republican opposition would likely present a real challenge – moderate Democrats are likely only willing to withstand so many strictly partisan votes (as was the case with the stimulus package). As a result, the likelihood of a bill passing “goes up greatly” if Democrats can soften Republican opposition.

（党派にかたよったあまりにも多数の票決に）抵抗する
Explanation:
リベラル派と穏健派の民主党員が合意に達することができれば、共和党によるclimate change bill案を退けるだけの力を得られる可能性がある。そして穏健派の民主党員も共和党による反対意見に抵抗でき、それを和らげることができれば、案が国会で通されるチャンスがそれだけ大きくなる、という意味ではないでしょうか。

agree  Fumigator: withstand は抵抗するとか、保持するとか言う意味があります、この場合、意味として賛成です．このコンテクストでは、共和党はまだ独自のClimate change billを提案するところまで行っていない様でが．
