Boebert's speech was basically "we don't have the votes for Kevin any longer so we need to move on".

She's not wrong and I think the main one not wanting to acknowledge this is Kevin McCarthy.

Going on right now. Herns and Donalds are now both in the official list.

Pretty good strategy by the 20 nominating different reps.

Makes the McCarthy clan look even more corrupt.

The previous clerk who called the roll has a much more pleasant voice and demeanor than this clerk.

This is the same one who did the first vote today.

She has gotta be getting tired of this BS.

I don’t understand why we keep voting the same way. The McCarthy crowd just needs to accept defeat and move on to someone else.

Yep. Margin is so slim it's going to have to be someone other than McCarthy. I don't see him ever getting 80% of these 20 reps on board
