Biggs: 10 Jordan: 6 Zeldin: 1 Banks: 1 Donalds 1 That's 19 thus far, folks. Kevin isn't exactly close at the moment. — PolitiTweet.org

As it stands, Biggs has 9 votes, Jordan has 4, Zeldin 1, Banks 1. Kevin McCarthy could be looking at upwards of 20 votes or more. — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin McCarthy can still win on the first ballot if Mike Pence has the courage. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

I've seen enough: GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (R) will not win the speaker's gavel on the first ballot.

Matt Gaetz makes eight votes against McCarthy. Bob Good and Paul Gosar coming up soon. — PolitiTweet.org

Seven votes against McCarthy now. He's sitting in his seat, his legs crossed, showing unprecedented amounts of sock, drumming his thigh with his left hand. He seems...unconcerned? At peace? — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Cloud votes for Jim Jordan. That's five GOP votes against McCarthy and we're still in the C's. That's already enough votes to prevent McCarthy from taking the speakership. — PolitiTweet.org

I think we'll still be in the C's (Cline, Cloud, or most likely, Clyde) when it'll be clear that McCarthy doesn't have the votes. There are already four Republican votes against him. — PolitiTweet.org

I think Andy Biggs is first up among the no votes. So he'll get to...vote for himself first? — PolitiTweet.org

@ScottCandage @richarddeitsch Almost certainly not. I would bet Jeffries has dropped some Biggie himself on the floor. But this is searchable in the congressional record. — PolitiTweet.org

Here we go, folks. Speaker vote is about to start. Rep. Arthur A. Aardvark (D-Ore.) first up. (Just kidding, it's Alma S. Adams.) — PolitiTweet.org

I counted at least nine members who didn't applaud or stand up when Stefanik concluded her nominating speech for McCarthy, and that was me just counting Republicans seated in the center section. There are a lot of Republicans standing in the back and spread out elsewhere. — PolitiTweet.org

Definitely see some Republicans not clapping or standing for Kevin McCarthy. Like, at least a dozen. Interestingly enough, Ralph Norman *did* stand up and clap, even though he's supposedly a hard no. — PolitiTweet.org

There are 434 members present for the Quorum Call. That means the threshold for a majority is still 218. Everyone showed up. (Dem Rep. Don McEachin died in November after he was elected. His vacancy will be filled later this month.) — PolitiTweet.org

As usual, most of the hard-right members seem to be sitting near the center aisle of the chamber. I see a lot of anti-McCarthy votes seated next to each other... — PolitiTweet.org

Good morning from the House chamber, where it's about 60° and members are filtering in. Reporters are taking their seats. Children of members are shaking hands with Congressmen. Greg Pence is bottle feeding a baby that is seated in a chair. Everything must belong somewhere. — PolitiTweet.org
