And all votes are cast... The result... Same as yesterday (except douchecanoe Gaetz who seems to think this is all a joke and voted for Trump). 212 for Jeffries, 201 for McCarthy, 19 for Donalds, 1 for Trump and 1 Present.

I'd expect a vote for adjournment next.

So far the answer to the question of how much progress was made is...

NONE. So far everyone who voted against McCarthy yesterday voted against him today.

Who had Matt Gaetz voting for Trump as #Speaker on their bingo card?

Ugh. Round 7. Every time #McCarthy loses 5 it’s over.

And there it is... The 5th vote for Donalds. Presumably Dems won't vote Present so McCarthy will fail again. Question is by how much.

And now we see if that over night "progress" they were talking about made any difference. The vote begins!

#Speaker #7thVote

Well the Ultra-MAGA is nominating Donalds again.

The guy nominating him said they could have elected the first black Speaker of the House (Donalds is black) to which all the Democrats stood up and applauded chanting "Hakeem! Hakeem!". Not what he intended.

Hey looks like Republicans are going to try again. But I'll reiterate what I said yesterday. We don't need long nominating speeches. This is the 7th time you've nominated McCarthy. We get it already.
