There is 5 against mccarthy
Good. It’s most disappointing to see some going wobbly.
And with those 5, it seems like the McCarthy nomination will fail again, unless by some strange turn of events a D votes for McCarthy (it’d probably be someone who doesn’t vote at all on this first roll call so they can wait and see if a single vote is enough or not).
Then we’d know that some bargain was struck behind closed doors to give the Dems some concessions in exchange for a vote or two.
