and remember when you signed up.

My point is - the fiasco of the 15 votes to get a SOH in 2021 actually set a "precedent" for how to proceed absent an actual Speaker, and we know that the House "functioning" itself would essentially be neutered.

But the SOH has no role in the Electoral Count. It's the media and 45 trying to get attention by manufacturing a "crises" in order to get their "problems" resolved and their selected SOH candidate in.

Hope you have a Happy New Year as well. I think all of us need one.
