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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
New member Anna Paulina Luna votes for Jim Jordan. That marks 12 GOP votes against McCarthy. Biggs has 7, Jordan 3, Zeldin 1, Banks 1. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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 Fuller @MEPFuller
Matt Gaetz makes eight votes against McCarthy. Bob Good and Paul Gosar coming up soon. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Dan Bishop votes for Andy Biggs. Lauren Boebert votes for Jim Jordan. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Andy Biggs votes for Andy Biggs. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
I think Andy Biggs is first up among the no votes. So he'll get to...vote for himself first? — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
I counted 11 Republicans clapping for Biggs, not counting Biggs and Gosar (who nominated him). — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Paul Gosar now nominating a third candidate. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Pete Aguilar sums up Hakeem Jeffries's governing style as "spread love it's the Brooklyn way." But, sir, WHAT ABOUT YOUR MOET AND ALIZE? — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Hal Rogers is sitting between Tom Cole and Steve Womack. The more things change... — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Kevin McCarthy is taking pictures on the floor with members. Might be a little early for that, dawg. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
McCarthy has walked onto the floor. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
I have a list of 13 other names I'm watching as well, but I'm keeping that for me. You can't see it. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Just for keeping score at home, here are the five members who are supposedly hard noes on McCarthy: Biggs Good Gaetz Norman Rosendale And here are the nine members on the letter this weekend: Bishop Clyde Crane Gosar Harris Luna Nogales Perry Roy If he loses others... — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
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
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
We're now doing the first official Quorum Call of the 118th Congress. As Coach Bud Kilmer once said, "Let's go, let's go!" — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
RT @jim_newell: George Santos is sitting alone in the back row :( — PolitiTweet.org

John Gibbs for MI-03 @votejohngibbs
So-called ‘candidate quality’ and alleged pro-life ‘extremism’ have nothing to do with the 2022 results. There’s li… https://t.co/xs6L6iJJKE

@heatherscope The vibes are immaculate. Tuesday afternoon is a movie. — 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
