This is entertaining:

During the voice vote on the Speaker’s position, the House clerk called every Democrat first, then every Republican, except Williams.  The 49 to 49 split was then decided by Williams.

Williams accepted the position amid cheers and boos, prompting state troopers to enter the House chambers ready to respond to an outburst.

After the vote, Representative Gerald McCormick reacted.  "I think we’ve elected a dishonest and dishonorable man to Speaker.  He’s made a joke of the government, he should be ashamed of himself, he’s a bold face lier."

Republicans promptly kicked Williams out of their next caucus meeting.  Rep. Eric Watson says "everyone is surprised right now that’s whats happening we don’t know the outcome yet, its not over."

Republicans still hold a 50 to 49 majority.  But what that means now, is unknown.
