This is the first time since the civil war a Speaker failed to be named on the first round of voting.
The search for a Speaker of the House in the United States House of Representatives enters its third day as Republicans fail to agree on a candidate that can get the necessary 218 votes.
South Dakota congressman Dusty Johnson supports Kevin McCarthy to be the speaker, who currently has the largest support among Republicans.
Johnson explained why it is so important for Republicans to come together and get behind a candidate.
Johnson says the reason for the dysfunction is because of the diversity of the republican party.
