House Republican leadership candidates are assembling support from fellow lawmakers ahead of today’s elections, with several members preparing to deliver nominating speeches for contested and uncontested posts.

Rep. Ben Cline of Virginia said he will nominate Texas Rep. August Pfluger for whip this morning. Cline is also set to succeed Pfluger as chairman of the Republican Study Committee.

Rep. Nathaniel Moran will give a speech in support of Pfluger, his fellow Texan, as the whip candidate seeks backing from House Republicans.

In the race for chair of the National Republican Congressional Committee, Rep. Carlos Gimenez of Florida said in an interview that he will speak on behalf of Indiana Rep. Rudy Yakym. The NRCC is the campaign arm of House Republicans.

Another nominating speech will support Utah Rep. Blake Moore, who is running unopposed to retain his position as conference vice chairman. Rep. Julie Fedorchak of North Dakota will speak for Moore.

Speaker Mike Johnson, meanwhile, said in an interview that he will not speak on behalf of any candidate.

The announced speakers represent a range of states and will make their appeals as Republicans prepare to select members for the party’s House leadership and campaign operation.
