I spoke to a senior House GOP source who indicated no one from the pro-KM contingent would allow their name to be thrown into the ring so long as McCarthy is still standing for the position. How long could this grind on? What would a recess/more huddles achieve? — PolitiTweet.org

Looks like McCarthy is going to fall short on the 3rd ballot, again. If he doesn’t get meaningfully closer, how long does he stick this out? When might he bow out & allow, say, a vote on Scalise? And! IF it gets to a Scalise vote, could *he* win with this crowd? — PolitiTweet.org

This would help McCarthy and would incentivize him to stick it out, if the denominator moves in his favor. But at this rate, a lot of Democratic absenteeism (which they’re used to!) would be needed bc KM doesn’t seem to be gaining any/much ground… — PolitiTweet.org

Some Democrats might not show up for future rounds, I’m told, by several sources… some are just bored by the House… https://t.co/IHFSyWG83k
