Breaking at this hour – GOP Rep. Steve Scalise will be nominated to be Speaker of the House. It is yet to be seen if he can get the 217 votes needed to win that vote. Fox News just reported on air that Scalise got 114 votes in the GOP Conference meeting, with Jim Jordan getting 99 votes. Scalise needs to get assurances he can get those who supported Jordan to come over to his side on a floor vote. They are talking about 3 PM ET as a possible time for the vote on the Floor of the House.

UPDATE: No Floor Vote this afternoon…..
