"The Republican-led House recessed Wednesday without voting on House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) as speaker. It’s unclear how long the recess might last. Scalise narrowly won his party’s nomination earlier Wednesday in a race that also included Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio). The delay in a vote by the full House signals that Scalise is still working to win support of Jordan backers. Becoming speaker requires a majority vote in the full, narrowly divided House."
