Resolves YES if at least 5 members either do not vote or vote "present" in the ballot electing the next Speaker of the House of Representatives, otherwise NO. If there are multiple ballots, only the final deciding ballot counts for this question.
Context: McCarthy won election to the Speakership by convincing 5 Republican holdouts to vote present instead of voting against him.
Unelected or temporary Speakers (e.g. Speaker Pro Tempore) will not count toward resolution
A member not voting for any reason counts, including absence. A vacant seat doesn't count, because it's not a member.
