Sid-is this a plus or a minus for those representatives trying to unseat the speaker? Is the votr for speaker by secret ballot? I don't think the speaker can lose if the vote is not by secret ballot.

While the commitments at this point are fluid, most votes are "off the board" but I expect that this one will go to the boards - meaning a recorded vote.
