the speaker of the united states house of representatives is the presiding officer of the united states house of representatives. the house elects its speaker at the beginning of a new congress (i.e. , after a general election) or when a speaker dies, resigns or is removed from the position intra-term. since 1839, the house has elected speakers by roll call vote. traditionally, each party's caucus or conference selects a candidate for the speakership from among its senior leaders prior to the roll call. representatives are not restricted to voting for the candidate nominated by their party, but generally do, as the outcome of the election effectively determines which party has the majority and consequently will organize the house. representatives that choose to vote for someone other than their party's nominated candidate usually vote for someone else in their party or vote "present".
