Most of the 11 who missed the vote were prevented from getting there by a bus accident. Johnson closed the vote early to prevent them from voting in time. One of them was recovering from surgery, and Johnson had 7 more Republicans in reserve he would have brought in if necessary anyway.

The members in question have been issuing statements about this all evening. Johnson still controls the gavel AND the timing AND windows for votes until January 3rd.
