Rep. Kevin McCarthy succeeded in winning over some opponents in the 12th and 13th ballots Friday as he continued his work to secure the House speakership.

The process has now lasted four days — the longest speaker contest in more than 160 years. Democrats, meanwhile, have remained unified around their leader, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries.

The House has voted to adjourn until 10 p.m. ET, when McCarthy is confident he will finally have enough votes to win the job. McCarthy said that when the House reconvenes, “I believe we’ll have the votes to finish this once and for all.” 

Here’s how the latest votes played out:

12th ballot:

• 213: McCarthy
• 211: Jeffries
• 4: Rep. Jim Jordan 
• 3: Rep. Kevin Hern

13th ballot:

• 214: McCarthy
• 212: Jeffries
