Joanna McClinton named Pennsylvania House Speaker after Rozzi steps down

[staylo]

My suspicion, and it*s merely an opinion, is that the Republicans knew they were going to end up with a democrat speaker one way or the other, so in the hopes of having a moderate in the position rather than a leftist kook some of them voted for a moderate hoping he would stay in the position after the special election results came in. Instead, the Democrats hornswoggled them and blocked Republicans from having the leadership for the two month interim, and then the moderate dutifully stepped down so they could install the kook leftist anyway.

It is also a 1 seat majority, but still a majority.
