Republicans deadlocked over House speaker
Voting has just ended. McCarthy has lost his bid for
House speaker, once again, though an official vote announcement is still
needed.
With no
majority earned on either side, a fifth round of voting may take place.
With
dissent ripe on the Republican side, Hakeem Jeffries has secured all 212 votes
from Democrats, versus McCarthy’s 201.
