There is some drama in the House of Representatives as they try to elect a new Speaker. The 118th Congress began on Tuesday. Upon the start of the new Congress, they elect a Speaker of the House. Since Republicans have the majority, they will select a Republican. The top contender is Kevin McCarthy. He needs a majority of 217 votes to be Speaker. However, after 3 rounds of voting, he has not been elected. He's short 20 votes.
