2nd round same as the first - 19 R votes against McCarthy. The only difference is that all 19 voted for Gym Jordan, fascist extraordinaire.
Where do they go from here?
God knows.
@TheKarlWLewis Yes, 1923. And that was the only time since the Civil War, until now.
@RationalLeft
Nowhere good, that's for damned sure.
I've heard that the last time this happened... failure to elect a speaker on the first vote, was back in 1923. A hundred years ago.
Dems in disarray! Or... something.
