Johnson Re-elected House Speaker in Tense Floor Vote
Hindustan Times Lucknow
|January 05, 2025
Prez-elect Donald Trump had endorsed Mike Johnson, and was on the phone during the House vote to secure the outcome
WASHINGTON: US House of Representatives Speaker Mike Johnson was re-elected to the chamber's top job on Friday by a razor-thin margin that highlighted potential fissures among President-elect Donald Trump's Republicans on Capitol Hill.
Johnson appeared to initially fall short of the majority he needed to retain his job in a roll-call vote that lasted nearly two hours, but two Republican opponents switched their votes to support him after lengthy negotiations, with at least one reporting receiving a call from Trump himself.
Johnson won re-election with 218 votes—the minimum number needed. Republicans control the chamber by a razor-thin 219-215 majority.
