Wednesday marks the second day of the 118th Congress and there is still no Speaker of the House — or a clear path forward.

Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) failed to secure the required 218 votes on three consecutive ballots Tuesday to secure the gavel. 

It’s been a century since the House required more than one vote elect a Speaker.

McCarthy is working to secure a deal, floating a path to victory with fewer than 218 votes Tuesday night, but many of his opponents are still digging in their heels. Watch ‘Elvis’ for free on the King of Rock and Roll’s birthday Pence urges Republicans to back McCarthy for Speaker

The House is set to begin its fourth round of voting for Speaker around noon, but reports emerged late Wednesday morning that McCarthy wanted to adjourn the House until Thursday as he struggles to lock down votes.

It’s unclear if he would have the votes to adjourn.
