A thought just flashed through my mind....
So Jordan nominated McCarthy... and.... Jordan was carrying 20 votes...
Is the FIX in?
Will Jordan make the grand gesture to unite and announce that he will turn his votes over to McCarthy?

So it seems under discussion is to immediately adjourn after reconvening which means McCarthy still doesn’t have the votes. Keep in mind it’s our tax dollars paying these guys who are doing what exactly?

And yet, he was re-elected 9 times. At least 2 times after it became clear he protected a sexual assaulter. Honestly, that says a lot about his constituents & what they stand for. IMO Worthless is as worthless does. Our district is one of the most gerrymandered districts in the country. Cracking, stacking, and packing are the three most common techniques used to dilute minority voting strength. Don’t refer to me as worthless. I didn’t assume you voted for him. 🤷♀️ but if you did, well, read your own post again

As someone who lives in Ohio-4 district, I can tell you that “Gym” Jordan is an a$$, is worthless, and has done nothing for his constituents. I don't live in his district, but I can tell you that you're right.

I guess it’s on to vote #5. And so much for dumpster don pushing the Republicans to elect McCarthy.

So serious question - will they keep putting this same guy up to vote and keep voting... until he steps off the ballot? Or until people just get sick of voting and think "fuck it, i'll vote him in?" I mean, what a waste of time and money!

So even after Trump endorsed him they still vote for Jordan. I'm surprised Trump actually endorsed him and now wonder how he will act now that they didn't follow his endorsement.

Doesn't voting present though lower the number of votes he needs? obviously only one that previously voted for him isn't helping but if more do it lowers the number he needs? Thought I read that somewhere. I don't see those 20 changing their votes any time soon.

If there were any Republicans that had some integrity 6 of them would vote for Jeffries and make him the Speaker of the House as a way to tell the other Republicans to get their damn act together and quit embarrassing themselves in front of the American People who are paying their salaries.

If it looks as if Jordan will win, TFG will rescind his prior endorsement and "fully" endorse Jordan. 'Cause he's steadfast and loyal like that.

I don't see Republicans voting for Jeffries but can enough of them vote present to lower the number needed and then he is voted in as speaker?
ETA I don't really see them actually doing this but ...

I really do wonder how long this will go on. I don’t see many changing their minds at this point.

This should be an embarrassment to Republicans in office, but it's not. Somehow they are placing blame on Democrats. Now it sounds like they are approaching the Democrats to see if they can come together to get past this. What a mess this is.
