The struggle for the position of speaker in the House of Representatives is one of the longest in history for 164 years.

The US House of Representatives has elected a speaker on its 15th attempt. This is Republican Kevin McCarthy. This was reported by CNN.

The final tally recorded 216 votes for McCarthy and 212 for Democrat Hakim Jeffreys.

It is known that the election of the speaker was blocked by a small group of hardliners who demanded concessions, changes in the way the House of Representatives is governed and priority or alternative legislation.

The struggle for the position of speaker in the House of Representatives is one of the longest in history for 164 years.

Remember that Republicans have been trying to elect Kevin McCarthy since January 3, making several unsuccessful attempts a day.
