Following Kevin McCarthy's ouster last week, the Republicans controlling the U.S. House of Representatives have nominated Steve Scalise for the position of Speaker on Wednesday.

However, it remains uncertain whether he will receive enough support to win the vote of the full chamber.

Scalise, currently the second highest-ranking Republican, needs to win approval from the full House to become the Speaker. As Republicans have a narrow 221-212 majority and Democrats are not expected to vote for any Republican candidate, they can only afford a few defections.

Global's Reggie Cecchini has more on this story.
