CNN anchor Jake Tapper said Friday during the network’s special coverage of the House Speaker vote that Republicans who initially did not vote for Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) did so to send a message.
Tapper said, “All right, so there we go, Congressman Mike Johnson is now officially Speaker Mike Johnson. There were two no-votes and two votes for other House Republicans. Ralph Norman voted for Tom Emmer, and Keith Self voted for Byron Donalds. Keith Self, who is about to start, I think, his sophomore term, and Norman have now officially changed their votes.”
