As many as needed...or until they vote to adjourn although there is question as to whether they could even get the votes needed to adjourn.

Maybe 1 more after this?

I don’t see those pampered, lazy fricks going too late.

Did more than 311 show up after initial quorum roll call?

I’m in the office and can’t follow, but is anyone changing their votes on these various votes?

Yes.
Amongst the 20 dissenters, Kevin Hern has picked up 3 votes this round from congressmen who’d previously voted for Byron Donalds.

Can’t wait to see when they vote to adjourn and the 20 side with the Dems and keep them voting.

My irritability just wants them to throw out formality and ask

IS ANYONE GOING TO CHANGE THEIR VOTE?

At least from the Dems side. They're not going to change their nomination from Jefferies. What a waste of time and, shocker, tax payers money.

Clearly the GOP and Freedom caucus is the party holding this up. And good for those standing firm on getting KM out of there, but Jesus Christ this pathetic.

With the Pakistani IT experts in control how safe would that be? Stupid to even consider it.

They are wasting far less of our money by not being in session.

Do they get paid if they haven't been sworn in yet? If not, I'm sure their first bill will be to pass back-pay.

The new freshmen that had family flown in for their swearing in are pissed.

C-Span said that several, one had a baby, another's mother died, will be absent

Kevin didn't get the early mail in ballots like a dufus. He is losing votes. He needs to stop the bleeding but the chamber of commerce won't let him-I'd bet.

I also wonder about the news of deals made being fake news. There is a team out there taking the time to issue false statements from Trump.

The "Pakistani's" was just a reference to the stupidity of our governmental officials. Someone would be involved and whoever it is can be bought or threatened.

They are working overtime & issuing false statements about others as well as the fake deals being worked out.
