"Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) said House Republicans may be open to negotiating with Democrats to get Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) elected speaker of the House.

His threat came after an eighth vote in failed to yield a speaker, who must receive a majority of votes cast. Some 20 Republicans have backed other candidates for the position, though the vast majority of the party’s 222 members have repeatedly voted for McCarthy. Democrats, meanwhile, have been voting unanimously for Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY).

Since McCarthy only needs a majority of those voting, a handful of Democrats could simply decline to vote, thus lowering the threshold for a majority."
