Kevin McCarthy LOSES THIRD VOTE For Speaker of House! – Jim Jordan Picks Up 20 Votes …UPDATE: House Adjourned Until Noon Tomorrow

Posted BY: Jim Hoft

Kevin McCarthy lost the third vote for House Speaker on Tuesday.

The winning Republican can only afford to lose four votes! He must reach 218 votes to win the Speakership.

McCarthy already lost 13… and it’s not even halfway over.

Republican ‘rebels’ have coalesced around Jim Jordan.

And GAETZ, who initially voted for Biggs for speaker, now nominates JORDAN.

Confirms what @AnnieGrayerCNN @mkraju & me first reported about the McCarthy opposition coalescing around Jordan on the 2nd ballot.
