A hopeful take: Maybe this is clearing the runway for voting "present".
She supports Jordan
?
No, not really. You don't have to like her, but tell the truth. From: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/arizona/2023/10/06/reps-debbie-lesko-and-paul-gosar-pick-sides-in-the-speakers-race/71090307007/
Emphasis mine.
Wow you're confidently incorrect. Your article is from before Scalise dropped from the race. She's voted for Jordon in the vote this week.

She voted for ANYONE to be speaker rather than having no speaker at all. That is not the same as supporting someone. When given the choice, she actively wanted someone else and NOT Jordon (not that Scalise is a great choice either). Seeing how broken the House has become, she's throwing up her hands and giving up -- but I do expect she will vote for whomever her party votes on because she wants the government to function at least a little.
If I missed some quote where she actually voiced support for Jordon more than saying that we need a Speaker, please enlighten me.
If you're looking for quotes, where's the quote to prove that she voted for anyone?
All of Arizona's house republicans voted for Jordan
