Who Didn't Vote for Kevin McCarthy for House Speaker? 21 Republicans
The US House speaker fight has completed an 11th vote — the most since before the Civil War — and Republican leader Kevin McCarthy still hasn’t secured enough backers.
The chamber, which will reconvene on Friday, has been paralyzed for three straight days, and there’s no resolution in sight. The California Republican is being opposed by 20 GOP critics, even after former President Donald Trump urged holdouts to “VOTE FOR KEVIN.” McCarthy lost the support of Indiana’s Victoria Spartz, who answered “present” in the last three rounds of voting, and some of his allies are talking about whether he should step aside for someone else.
