Jordan's math problem effectively melted away overnight.
for the last two weeks — and the improbable empowerment of one of former President Trump's fiercest defenders.Jordan won a huge endorsement this morning from House Armed Services Committee Chair Mike Rogers , whoon Friday there was nothing the Freedom Caucus co-founder could do to win his support.
Jordan also earned the backing of Reps. Vern Buchanan , Ken Calvert , Drew Ferguson and Rob Wittman — a quick succession of reversals that suggested Jordan could have enough momentum to win on the House floor.These were the most public of "no" votes. Dozens of Republicans have not yet weighed in, meaning a rump caucus of holdouts could emerge on the floor Tuesday.
GOP sources have indicated there's a high possibility Jordan loses support if the vote goes to a second ballot.After Jordan's nomination in an internal GOP conference vote on Friday, 55 Republicans indicated they would not support the conservative firebrand on the House floor.
