david scott. effries. so here s the thing you can see the tally chart on the right-hand side. we are making sure everybody has voted. we believe the magic number is 217. as you see right there kevin mccarthy has 216. when they start another roll call we will go back to that immediately but in the meantime let s bring in our chief congressional correspondent chad pergram chad do we appear to be one vote short. that s right. this is why it always takes a while at the end because you have the tellers, the tally clerks in front of the chamber they are going through manually and comparing notes and making sure that everybody has the same numbers. let me do a deep dive right now. so this is where we stand. okay. so remember that the speaker must win an outright majority of all members casting ballots for somebody by their last name. okay? so the present votes do not count. the present votes do not count. so if you laura: chad can we pause? because i think we have matt g
nothing but drama, we re on multiple days now with multiple candidates from this group. so i m not sure how lauren boebert on one hand can demand so much out of kevin mccarthy but then demand nothing out of someone else and be willing to vote for them as speaker. marjorie taylor greene saying the american people are sick of drama. has marjorie taylor greene met marjorie taylor greene? that s rich. three days, 11 rounds of slvoti and still no speaker. good morning, everyone. kaitlan is in washington d.c., again. and kevin mccarthy is suffering a historic defeat. hours from now, what will happy ahead of the chamber s 12th vote. they re hoping there s a glimmer of hope. there have been tense negotiations happening behind closed doors, questions whether or not a final proposal may be on the horizon. something that mccarthy and some of the party holdouts can agree on. we ll wait to see if the hard liners can. and also this morning what we are laerearning about the suspect of
local election workers, in 2020, he was harassed and threatened, as he did his job faithfully. he did not bend. he did not bow. he did not yield to the plim threats and pressure. political threats and pressure. he was so trusted by both political parties, that the new democratic governor of pennsylvania, josh shapiro, appointed him as pennsylvania s secretary of state, a republican who ensured the integrity of the elections. that s a high compliment.

citigroup and goldman sachs, no record. graduated from universities, no record of that. blatant lies and calls into question how your constituents and the american people can believe anything you may say when you are standing on the floor of the house of representatives supposedly fighting for them? that s the real issue here. well, look, and i agree with what you re saying, and as i stated and i continue, we can debate my resume and how i worked with firms such as goldman is it debatable or just false? is it debatable or just false? it s not false at all. it s debatable. congressman-elect santos given you a lot of time. i think the time owed is to the people of new york. it 3rd. it s hard to imagine how they could possibly trust your explanations when you re not even willing to admit the depth of your deception to them. thank you so much for being here and joining us. thank you, tulsi. congressman-elect george santos confronted for lying about his resume by tulsi
