So how did the House get out of the deadlocked Speaker race in 1849, which went to 63 ballots (2nd highest number)? They changed the rules to make the standard for election a plurality not majority! https://t.co/BKoSg0QCZT — PolitiTweet.org

AND WE'RE OFF, starting the 9th ballot for the race to be Speaker of the House, tying the number of ballots it took in 1923 to re-elect Speaker Gillett. Gillett won by conceding to a number of changes to liberalize House legislative rules, to win over some GOP insurgents. — PolitiTweet.org
