Steve Womack voted for Emmer.<\/li>\n<li>Florida Rep.\u2064 Greg\u200c Steube voted for Scalise.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>While \u2064Jim Jordan may\u2062 still have some support within his own party, the\u200b fact that he is losing votes with each round of\u2063 voting is not a good sign for \u200dhis \u200cpotential speakership.<\/p>\n<p>There are\u2063 several possible\u200b reasons for\u200b Jordan&#8217;s \u200bdeclining support. One reason could be \u2062his controversial reputation. \u2062Jordan has been \u200ba prominent \u2062figure in the Republican\u2062 Party, known for his fiery and\u200d confrontational style. While this has endeared him to some conservatives, it \u2063has also \u200dmade \u2063him a polarizing figure,\u200c with \u200bcritics\u200c accusing \u200bhim of being too combative and divisive.<\/p>\n<p>Another reason for Jordan&#8217;s lack of support could\u200c be \u200dhis association with former President \u2064Donald Trump. Jordan was one of Trump&#8217;s most vocal supporters during his time in office, and some Republicans may be hesitant \u2064to vote for him due to his\u2064 connection \u200dto the divisive and controversial\u200c former president.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, some Republicans may \u200csee Jordan as too closely aligned\u2064 with \u2062the far-right faction of the party, and\u200c may prefer a more moderate\u2062 candidate for \u200dspeaker.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the \u2062reasons\u2063 may be, it is clear \u200bthat things are not going well\u2062 for Jim Jordan&#8217;s bid for the speakership. With each round of voting, he loses more support, and it \u200cis becoming increasingly unlikely\u200b that \u200dhe will be able to secure the\u2062 necessary votes to become\u2062 the new speaker \u2063of \u200bthe House \u2062of Representatives.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen \u2064who will emerge as the new frontrunner for the speakership, but as of now, it appears that Jim Jordan&#8217;s\u2062 chances are diminishing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
