I heard a republican blaming this on the Democrats, because they withheld 210 votes, while the republicans much fewer. Perhaps another way to look at this is Jeffries only needs to flip 7 republicans to win the speaker vote, while a republican is going to need over a dozen democrats on their side.
How this ends, nobody knows.

In other words, the democrats are closer to electing a speaker than are the Republicans. Now that's funny.
