I'm not sure it takes a single vote. I think it takes a single individual to make a Motion to remove the speaker but I would think that the entire House would then have to vote on the Motion. Joyce? Someone? Is this correct.
At least, the elected representatives have now been sworn in and, one hopes, there would be enough sane Republicans (surely there are some?) to join with Democrats to vote McC off of the speaker's chair.. Unfortunately, if he's removed, we end up right where we have been this past week though. Talk about Catch 22!
I don't believe McCarthy will be Speaker for very long. All it takes is one vote and he's out.
