    U.S. House In Turmoil As No Speaker Elected On 2nd Day Of Voting

    The U.S. House of Representatives remained in turmoil with no speaker elected on the second day of voting.

    House members voted on Wednesday night to adjourn until noon Thursday, prolonging a historical political stalemate that has paralysed the lower chamber.

    U.S. Congressman, Kevin McCarthy, a Republican from California, failed to secure enough votes three times earlier in the day due to intra-party division.

    House members voted three times on Tuesday the opening day of the divided 118th Congress, but McCarthy fell short of the necessary votes to be the next speaker.

    It was the first time a House speaker who maintained order, managed its proceedings, and governed the administration of its business on the lower chamber’s floor hadn’t been elected on the first ballot in 100 years.

    The 435-seat House will have to vote until a speaker is elected with a majority of votes.

    Before that, members cannot be sworn in and committees cannot be formed with the rest of the business stalled.

    U.S. Congresswoman, Elissa Slotkin, a Michigan Democrat, tweeted that the infighting “isn’t just a shame for Republicans, it’s bad for the entire country.”
