good evening from new york, i m chris hayes, you re looking at a live image of the well of the house of representatives, the nation s capital, where they re set to reconvene out there about three and a half hours pm journey, when they do reconvene, they ll be setting about the business of electing a speaker of the house, for the 118th congress, something they have failed to do for the first time in 100 years. today, kevin mccarthy, the house leader of the republican party, long expected to be the next speaker, should republicans take the, house was put up for speaker, and failed to obtain the magical 218 votes threshold he needs to become speaker. he failed once, he felt twice, even three times. that s right, today, three more votes, three more failed votes for kevin mccarthy, which brings the total to six. and that s because he has a very narrow majority in a caucus of about 20, exactly 20, in the last few, votes republicans, who do not want to vote for kevin kathy, the spea

set to hold the seventh vote for speaker of the house, but within the past, hour the house voted to adjourn, to close up shop for the night and come back tomorrow, because why not check this thing out another day. now that vote to adjourn was on par with the rest of the chaos and confusion that as characterized this entire speaker debacle. majority of republicans voted to end the session and wait until tomorrow, while all democrats voted to keep the session going. but since right now neither party controls the house voting process, the whole vote turned into what might politely be called a go rodeo. there was yelling, cries of foul play from democrats over the fact that several republicans were allowed to change their votes after the clock ran out. and this, at the age of 216. the nays are 214. accordingly the motion is adopted. accordingly, the house stands adjourned until noon, tomorrow. and the end, and to mccarthy republicans, the never kevin caucus, sided with pro
