Original Note:
The Constitution only says the House "shall chuse their Speaker." It does not detail the mechanics for the election. Per House Rule I, Clause 8(b)(3)(A) the House may replace an appointed Speaker Pro Tempore with an elected Speaker Pro Tempore. https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/article-1/ https://rules.house.gov/sites/republicans.rules118.house.gov/files/documents/Rules%20and%20Resources/118-House-Rules-Clerk.pdf
