REPORTS: RINO ‘Holdouts’ Not Budging… Jim Jordan Encouraged to Drop Bid For Speaker
Chairman Jim Jordan earlier Thursday said he will seek a meeting with the RINO holdouts after his bids for Speaker failed.
Jordan so far has failed to secure the 2017 votes to win the gavel. He said he expected a 3rd ballot possibly Thursday evening.
“I’m still running for Speaker and I plan to go to the floor and get the votes and win this race,” Jordan told reporters as he prepared to huddle with McCarthy, McHenry and the RINO holdouts.
