The World According to Oatney

McDaniel May Have 50

Sources close to this situation inform The World that as of this morning, State Representative Steve McDaniel, who has been anything but the paragon of unity during his campaign for and the aftermath of his victory for the Republican nomination for Speaker Pro Tempore of the Tennessee House of Representatives, may in fact reach the plateau of 50 floor votes he needs to be elected the House Number Two.

Multiple sources from the Hill last week had declared that McDaniel did not have 50 votes among his fellow Republicans.
