Twenty House Republicans voted against Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, on the first floor vote Tuesday, blocking his path to obtaining the 217 necessary votes to win the speakership.Jordan received 200 votes. Six were cast for former Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., who was ousted exactly two weeks ago. Seven Republicans voted for House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., who pulled his name from the running last week when he couldn’t reach the number.
Buck told CNN that speaker is “the worst job in America,” so he voted for Emmer, because, “I don’t like Tom Emmer.” Buck also said there is “no way” he’s voting for Jordan. They're not the only ones who support McHenry. Holdouts Granger, Womack, Simpson and Gimenez reportedly called for the caucus to elect McHenry as Pro Tempore, a move that would expand his powers and allow the House to conduct business. McHenry's powers are limited as the designated Pro Tem. Kelly introduced that resolution Monday night.
