House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, has lost a secret vote to remain his party’s nominee for House speaker, several Republican lawmakers told reporters.
Jordan lost the ballot by 86-112, Rep. Kat Cammack, R-Fla., said. She added that Republicans will leave town for the weekend, and members have until noon on Sunday to declare their candidacy. A candidate forum is expected Monday.
That’s what I mean - the Mccarthy vote made them look disorganized and incompetent, so maybe they wised up. It’s already been another shitshow though. Just nominating Jordan at all and his receiving 200 votes is revolting.
