McCarthy still short of votes, but deal chips away holdouts
After four days and 13 rounds of voting, the House made some progress Friday but has still failed to elect a speaker. More than a dozen Republicans switched their votes to support Congressman Kevin McCarthy, but a handful of hard-right members refuse to back down. As Lisa Desjardins reports, McCarthy is hopeful he will soon be able to convince some of those holdouts to back his bid for speaker.
