C-Span was reading this on-air as I was online.
And it could take months.
This whole affair, or w/e you wanna call it, has brought the House to a stand still.
Steve Scalise is taking the podium.
This might be 'dasting.
Yup, Scalise voted along with the other 5 Louisiana Reps for McCarthy. Now he noms him.
Writing them all off as Rhinos this year.
Chip Roy noms Jordan.
Higgins, and the rest of the Louisiana Reps voted McCarthy
Ahead of third Spkr vote, GOP TX Rep Roy now nominating Rep Jim Jordan for Speaker. Jordan got 19 votes on the second vote
