Gym Jordan is winning over Republican holdouts. He might be within 10-20 by the time the House speaker vote is held tomorrow at 12 PM EDT.
My impression is that he's falling back on good old-fashioned party tribalism. Stuff needs to be done, he has more support than anyone else in the party, vote for him and let's move on.
Keep in mind that *anyone* -- R or D -- can call for a vacate vote. So Jordan might not last long if he goes off the rails.
