The Georgia Republican posted a new advertisement on Twitter that was paid for by her campaign, calling Jeffries a 'radical leftist.'
Prior to the House adjourning on Wednesday, McCarthy had only earned 201 votes from his fellow Republicans—substantially less than the 218 needed for election. Jeffries had 212 votes from his fellow Democrats, and the 20 dissenting Republicans cast their ballots for Representative Byron Donalds.
After reconvening Wednesday evening, the chamber voted to adjourn again until Thursday for a seventh round of voting. The extra time could give Republicans a chance to reach accord on whom to push through as the next speaker of the House.
