What's this?

Based on this article, it sounds like he's got a shot to win


"Late Tuesday night, the House Republican Conference tapped Rep. Mike Johnson (R-La.) as its speaker designate. Johnson won with 128 votes in the secret-ballot election and had minimal opposition during a roll-call vote."

"Three GOP lawmakers voted “present” last night in the private GOP-only roll-call vote, as we scooped: Reps. Mark Amodei (Nev.), French Hill (Ark.) and Thomas Massie (Ky.).

There were another 23 absences. This is where Johnson’s problems will be, if he has any. Some may be holdouts, but there was also an event last night that some GOP lawmakers attended instead of the vote."
