@MeetThePress @NBCNews @mattgaetz @RepAndyBiggsAZ @RepDustyJohnson @sahilkapur 1/ Quite amazing it has been exactly 100 years since we last saw multiple ballots for speaker, so we are witnessing a bit of history. None of the thousands of ppl who work on Capitol Hill -- lawmakers, staffers, reporters -- have ever seen this before. #TweetThePress — PolitiTweet.org

@MeetThePress @NBCNews @mattgaetz @RepAndyBiggsAZ 3/ While there’s plenty of chatter about a bipartisan consensus candidate, there have been no serious discussions on this. Moderate @RepDustyJohnson calls it fantasy, more akin to an Aaron Sorkin film. #TweetThePress More from our own @SahilKapur here: https://t.co/DjDGxx5LuC — PolitiTweet.org

@MeetThePress @NBCNews @mattgaetz @RepAndyBiggsAZ @RepDustyJohnson @sahilkapur 2/ In 1923, it took Rep. Frederick Gillett, R-Mass., nine ballots before he was reelected as speaker. Before the Civil War, speaker floor fights were quite common; it happened more than a dozen times. The record was 133 ballots during two months from 1855-1856 #TweetThePress — PolitiTweet.org
