House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (La.) has withdrawn from the race for Speaker, just a day after narrowly winning the nomination in a secret ballot.

Almost immediately it became apparent that he would struggle to get the 217 votes needed on the House floor.

Scalise secured the party’s nomination Wednesday for Speaker, defeating House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) in a 113-99 vote.
