Here is my personal “whip count”, based on listening to Fox news and reading the net:
1. Ted Yoho
2. Louie Gohmert
3. Jim Bridenstine
4. Steve King
5. Dave Brat
6. Walter Jones
7. Paul Gosar
8. Thomas Massie
9. Marlin Stutzman
10. Tim Huelskamp
11. Justin Amash
12. Glenn Grothman (Freshman-WI)
13. Gary Palmer (Freshman-AL)
There are probably 3-4 others who announced that I don’t have. I think they get to at least 30 by tomorrow morning. Tomorrow could be the most interesting day in Congress in our lifetimes (I turn 60 tomorrow).
#14 is Jody Hice of Georgia.
Daniel Horowitz reporting that Mark Walker, Freshman, NC-6, campaigned on dumping Boehner, but has not yet announced who he will vote for.
Great!
I have to think that my newly elected Rep - Glen Grothman here in WI is going to be a part of this group.
None of the five LA representatives are on the list; they must be in Boehner-Scalise’s pocket. And two of them are new.
