Day 4 of voting for the Speaker of the House will begin at 12 pm EST, with the 12th vote, after McCarthy failed to get the necessary votes in the 11 votes so far.
On Tuesday, Trump endorsed Kevin McCarthy failed three times to win the vote for US Speaker of the House. It was the first time in 100 years that Speakership was not decided in the first vote.
20 Republicans voted for Rep. Jim Jordan in the 3rd round.
On Wednesday morning McCarthy lost a 4th time. Then, later, a fifth time. And then in the afternoon McCarthy lost a sixth time.
This was despite the fact that President Trump endorsed Kevin McCarthy again on Wednesday morning and urged Republicans to vote for him.
President Trump’s endorsement did not help Kevin McCarthy.
On Thursday morning, the House voted 4 times and McCarthy lost all 4 votes.
Rep. Matt Gaetz voted for Donald Trump in the 7th vote. Then later he nominated and voted for Trump in the 11th vote.
The House adjourned after the 11th failed vote.
Every single conservative who voted against McCarthy in the first 3 rounds voted against him in the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th and 11th rounds.
