Two more and they made it!!

Eh, nevermind.  It's late and I thought that would result in Jeffries winning.  Too bad.  Love to see those six be responsible for electing a Democrat speaker.

This is a change for Biggs and Crane and a positive for McCarthy

Yes.  The only things that blocks McCarthy are votes for other candidates.  McCarthy could survive up to 9 'present' votes as long as there are no GOP votes for other candidates.

At this point, Rosendale could still vote for Biggs, etc. and McCarthy would still win.

Prediction:  McCarthy wins it 215-212

Someone finally made Gaetz an offer he couldn't refuse.
