Turnover not takeover
You don't need to a be a member of the house to be Speaker, if you or I could get the requisite number of votes we could be speakerI understand they nominate their own nominee, but, what happens if someone gets the majority of the vote in the house, someone who isn't a nominee of either party?
I mean, select few house members have voted for people who aren't relevant, their votes are still counted, they are not blank votes, right?
