The House of Representatives Can't Function Without a Speaker
It seems unlikely this could end today. They could figure out a consensus candidate or McCarthy could somehow get all. Let's see. There's 19 no votes. I think he can only afford to lose four. So he's 15 people by the end of today. Unlikely or a bunch of people could not show up for votes and reduce your win number. But it could theoretically go on for weeks. The House of Representatives cannot function. It can't even swear in new members until they have a speaker.
