we are together. they ve sat there, they have laughed and they have chuckled and pointed fingers at us. you know what? as my friend from florida just said, we re together. neil: well, not quite all together right now. the 20 that are resisting kevin mccarthy remain about that now. we re about the halfway point of a ninth vote to see who will lead the house of representatives. looks like for the ninth time in a row, kevin mccarthy is going to have to suit up for number 10. that is if we get to a number 10. under others there, you can see 11 votes for someone other than kevin mccarthy. keep in mind the republican leader can shed no more than four of his republican colleagues. in this vote, as in the prior eight, he has failed to do so. chad pergram has the latest from capitol hill. chad? neil, this is the longest speaker election since 1923. the house is now taking the ninth vote for speaker. it must go to a tenth. the goal was for kevin mccarthy to move the dial today. p
Byron donalds and kevin hern have amass add few votes throughout this. we ll continue the keep watching this as they count the numbers and see if they re done for the day and whether or not they convene hint closed doors. the story goes on. see you tomorrow. have a great afternoon, everybody. doesn t really matter what my vote is. he doesn t have 218. they want republicans to led and want a government that works and doesn t embarrass them. we re failing on both missions. we are committed to make change to this institution that has lost its way. i don t mind saying, i m directing my marks to another part of our team and make no mistake, we are a team.
