    How many of them voted to overturn the 2020 election?

      I believe 7 of the 9 did. There are 2 Republicans running who didn’t try to overturn the 2020 election. Of course, the Freedom Caucus will oppose those candidates, keeping them from getting enough votes.

      One of the reports I heard about on the news this morning is that the MAGA wing demands that any speaker nominee be an election denier, which is one of the many reasons that Jordan refused to answer the question about whether he still believes the election was stolen.
