Biggs didn't swing to McCarthy. (Original Post) sinkingfeeling Jan 2023 OP
He did "Jordan" and Boebert did "Present" BumRushDaShow Jan 2023 #1

It counts as a vote BumRushDaShow Jan 2023 #4
Meaning he does not need 218 votes? there are already 3 not voting for anyone? question everything Jan 2023 #6
We will have to wait for the final vote BumRushDaShow Jan 2023 #9
