House speaker live updates: Second vote expected today after Jordan loses first round

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) faces a second vote for speaker Wednesday after falling short on the first ballot Tuesday, when 20 members of his own party refused to back him. Jordan, a conservative firebrand endorsed by former president Donald Trump, is seeking to succeed Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), who was ousted more than two weeks ago. To prevail, Jordan needs a majority vote from the full chamber, including Democrats. He can afford to lose only four GOP votes if all members are present.
