Already happened. Boehner was reelected as Speaker a few days ago and McConnell has been elected as incoming Majority Leader.

Thanks. I thought I had heard that, but assumed the newly elected group would be ones to vote.

Did they? Or were the new members not included?

THE ELECTION FOR SPEAKER IS IN JANUARY BY ALL THE NEW HOUSE MEMBERS. Boehner has won a Party caucus vote. Normally he would go on to win the January vote too.

However if Boehner fails on this executive amnesty problem he will not be elected Speaker in January.
