Steve Scalise likely going to be next Speaker of the House Update: Not so fast, Scalise out, Jordan back in the running...? 🤯

 

I would have preferred Jim Jordan, but Steve Scalise is probably better than Kevin McCarthy. 

Update: But don't count your Speaker before the votes are gotten...🤯

AoSHQ: Update: Scalise does not have the votes so he is withdrawing and Jim Jordan jumping back in, Steve Scalise and Speaker of the House and Morning Report 10.11.23

American Greatness: Scalise does not have the votes, expected to drop out

Instapundit: House Republicans choose Steve Scalise

Victory Girls: Was it worth it?

🚨 JUST IN: There will most likely be NO VOTE today on the House floor for Speaker

As of now, Steve Scalise does NOT HAVE THE 217 VOTES to be elected Speaker. THIS WILL BE A FIGHT.

Republicans who've PUBLICLY said they're not voting for Scalise include:
