Why John Boehner Will Win Reelection as House Speaker Today

Despite the best efforts of rebellious conservatives attempting to drum up opposition to John Boehner in today’s vote for House speaker, the safe bet is that Boehner will comfortably keep his post for a third term.

So far, of the 246 House Republicans who will be sworn into office today, just 10 have publicly stated they will not vote for Boehner: Reps. Jim Bridenstine, Thomas Massie, Ted Yoho, Louie Gohmert, Dave Brat, Walter Jones, Paul Gosar, Steve King, Marlin Stutzman and Rep.-elect Gary Palmer.

That means 18 other members would have to turn on Boehner to force a second ballot. But even then, it’s unclear whether Boehner would drop out of the race or work to strike a deal with some of his disenchanted colleagues.

In 2013, Boehner felt the heat when a dozen House Republicans opposed him, but he narrowly escaped, winning 220 votes for speaker (a simple majority of all members voting is required).

Two years later, several lawmakers are hoping to learn from the practice run and make the unimaginable a reality.

“It is a growing number,” King, R-Iowa, told reporters Monday evening, keeping the details of his whip count to himself as he hurried into a meeting at the Capitol. “It is possible. That’s all I can say.”

Bridenstine, who voted for former Majority Leader Eric Cantor for speaker in 2013, became the first Republican to announce last week that he’ll once again find someone else to vote for instead of Boehner.

“Speaker Boehner went too far when he teamed with Obama to advance [the Cromnibus],” Bridenstine, R-Oklahoma, wrote in a statement Friday. “He relinquished the power of the purse, and with it he lost my vote.”

Bridenstine, who will be sworn into his second term in the House today, has been among the most vocal working to unseat Boehner from his post, scoring some assistance from Yoho and Gohmert, who both expressed an openness to running for speaker against Boehner.

“The American people have allowed us to choose who is best suited to lead the House by electing a deep bench of diverse and qualified members,” Yoho, R-Florida, wrote in a statement. “Our Republic is built on choice, and if needed, I would stand up to give our members that option.”

That news probably came as no surprise to Boehner, whose aides say fully expects to win the public roll call vote today.

"Rep. Boehner was selected as the House Republican Conference's choice for Speaker last November and he expects to be elected by the whole House,” Boehner spokesman Michael Steel wrote in an email.

While Boehner was not supported by Reps. Tim Huelskamp, Raul Labrador and Mick Mulvaneyin 2013, all three have indicated they will not oppose him in today’s vote.

The vote is expected to begin around 12:40 p.m. ET and is projected to take an hour to complete.

Delhi has 8 Lakh Fake Voters: Arvind Kejriwal

NEW DELHI:  The Aam Admi Party (AAP) on Tuesday said the national capital has around eight lakh fake voters, and accused the BJP of being behind the "scam". "In Delhi, 3,96,914 voters have 11,50,509 voter identity cards, which means one voter has three to four cards," Aam Padmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal said at a press conference. The former Delhi Chief Minister said he met Chief Election Commissioner VS Sampath on Tuesday to complain about the anomaly, and was assured that the matter would be looked into.

He said it was a "humongous figure" and something needed to be done.

2014 Unprecedented Success For BJP, Says President Amit Shah

• BJP chief Amit Shah congratulated by party leader Shahnawaz Hussain at the BJP headquarters

NEW DELHI:  Upbeat about the BJP's good show in the Jharkhand and Jammu and Kashmir assembly elections, party chief Amit Shah today said the year 2014 has been unprecedented for his party. Shah said the Bharatiya Janata Party first formed an absolute majority government at the centre, and thereafter "there has been a good performance" in the states as well. Addressing reporters at the BJP headquarters here, Shah said all that was promised to the people of Jharkhand would be fulfilled. "The Congress and so-called Janata Parivar tried to stop us but they have failed in Jharkhand," he said. Shah said they would meet the same fate when they fight against the BJP in Bihar next year. "The people of Jharkhand have destroyed their dreams," he said, referring to the Congress and the Janata Parivar. 

The BJP chief said his party has considerably improved its past seat tally in all the states it has contested after the general elections earlier this year. "Our government is pursuing the agenda of development and people who want progress are with us," he said. On why his party could meet the target of 40 seats in Kashmir, Shah said he was happy as the "desired progress was made by the party" in the state. He said the BJP was keeping its options open in Kashmir and would like to form the government, participate in formation of the government or even support it from outside. "All options are open in Jammu and Kashmir," he said, adding that the BJP would want that a popular government is formed in the state. Shah, however, regretted that his party's former Chief Minister of Jharkhand, Arjun Munda, lost the assembly elections but said the party would continue seeking his guidance in the state.
