  • last year
The U.S. House of Representatives met for a fourth day of trying to elect a House Speaker. On Thursday, McCarthy was able to flip several holdouts, gaining more support than he's had for the entire week. Still, a bitter impasse between members of the Republican Party continue to block him from winning enough votes to clinch the Speaker's gavel. *The information in this video is from before the House reconvened to continue voting Thursday evening. Be aware that there may be more recent developments.
