Rep. Mike Johnson appears on track to lose first round of House speaker vote~Mike Johnson REELECTED Speaker of House after vote changes

Louisiana Representative Mike Johnson was re-elected as Speaker of the House for the second consecutive Congress on Friday, after a few votes were changed on the first ballot. At first, it appeared Johnson would fail. Johnson will be the Speaker of the House for the new Congress starting in late January 2025.

 

Shocking Vote Reveals True Allegiances In House As Johnson Clings To Power

In a stunning display of bipartisan unity, the House swiftly rejected Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's bid to remove Speaker Mike Johnson from his position. The chamber resoundingly voted to table Greene's measure by a 359-43 tally, with both Democrats and Republicans coming together to support Johnson's leadership. The vote came just hours after Greene announced her intention to move forward with the motion, which was met with a wave of boos from her colleagues. Despite Greene's efforts to garner support from fellow Republicans like Reps. Thomas Massie and Paul Gosar, her campaign against Johnson ultimately failed. The speaker even received a boost from former President Donald Trump, who stood with him at Mar-a-Lago and praised his performance. Greene had been threatening to use the motion to vacate against Johnson since late March, citing issues such as the passage of a $1.2 trillion spending package. However, her recent meeting with Johnson, during which she made a series of "suggestions" including defunding special counsel Jack Smith's inquiry into Trump and halting financial aid to Ukraine, failed to sway the House. Recent polling from Monmouth University revealed that only one in five Americans wanted Johnson replaced as speaker, further underscoring the lack of support for Greene's initiative.
