He’s getting 202 votes. That’s quite a bit.
Yeah, it it is a lot.
But he needs 218 to win the Prize.
After 3 votes he is still short.
However, McCarthy can be proud
as he made history today.
1st time in 100 years a nominee for Speaker lost 1st vote.
Think the next record is 9 votes which happened @ mid 1800’s
Go Kevin Go. Break that record too.

But these loonies want Jordan (20 votes) who turned down the job and endorsed KM.
