The second round of voting just started a minute ago and there’s no indication that Jordan has changed enough minds yet. He already lost 4 Republican votes and they’re only up to the “C’s” so far.

So at least a couple members who had voted for Jordan yesterday have flipped and voted for someone else in this round, so it looks like he’s probably going to lose by a larger margin than last time.
ETA: final tally is Jeffries 212, Jordan 199, others 22.

he wasn’t voted in. when speakers are elected they create a secret list of people to replace them in the event they can’t serve. mchenry was at the top of mccarthy’s list. ( it’s a mc thing, apparently )
