"House Speaker Race: Jordan's Failure and Jeffries' Potential"

TL;DR Summary
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, is calling for a third vote on his nomination for speaker of the House. Jordan needs to win over the majority of House Republicans, but as of now, he seems far from that goal. The vote will test whether he has made any progress in gaining new supporters or if the party's divisions remain unchanged. Many members have complained about bullying and threats from Jordan and his supporters. The impasse continues despite the looming threat of a government shutdown and new funding requests from President Biden.
