Plasket asked the House clerk why she and other delegates were not allowed to participate in the House speaker vote.
The exchange occurred after Plaskett, a Democrat, stood after the first roll call vote to note what she said was a parliamentary inquiry. Breanne Deppisch is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital covering the 2024 election and other national news.
