| Description | Nine House Republicans are on the ballot Tuesday as contenders for House speaker — and while few of them have a whisper of a chance to get the near-unanimous GOP support they’ll need to win, their identities offer an important snapshot of their party at a critical moment.
What do you need to know about them? For one, this group won’t win many points for diversity: They are all male and, with one exception, all white. They aren’t known as legislative giants: Few, if any, have spent their time in the trenches toiling to pass legislation. To the extent they have gained notoriety, it’s through messaging and electoral work, not policy. |
