It’s the first time the race has gone to multiple ballots since 1923
A once-in-a-century fight is playing out on Capitol Hill. Members of Congress are unable to agree on their next House Speaker. Republican leader Kevin McCarthy failed to lock down the votes he needed to win during several rounds of voting. It’s the first time the race has gone to multiple ballots since 1923 — a sign of the fractures within the GOP.
