This is the 5th highest number of ballots for Speaker of the House in U.S. history. No other Speaker selection since well before the Civil War has gone as far as the 15th ballot, and only four since the Founding have gone farther. What #KevinMcCarthy owes #MattGaetz is scary. — PolitiTweet.org

#KevinMcCarthy will be elected Speaker on the 15th ballot not long after midnight as January 6 turns to January 7. But it’ll be a Pyrrhic victory, resulting in a House of Representatives barely worthy of the name. — PolitiTweet.org

When #KevinMcCarthy becomes Speaker with 216 votes, it brings to mind that #NancyPelosi likewise became Speaker with that same number, proving that total numbers tell only a small sliver of the story. — PolitiTweet.org
