GOP Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick leaves chamber after voting 'no' on rule
Melanie ZanonaMelanie Zanona is a Capitol Hill correspondent for NBC News.
Reporting from Washington
After Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., delivered a surprising no vote on the rule, some of his Republican colleagues scrambled to find him on the floor most likely to try to get him to change his vote.
But Fitzpatrick bolted out of the chamber and could not be found.
When NBC News informed Rep. Dusty Johnson, R-S.D., that Fitzpatrick appeared to have run off, Johnson replied: Smart.
Johnson then tried to reach Fitzpatrick by phone, but so far he has been unsuccessful.

Sorry that's not this vote. It's the previous vote. I can't find this one.

No, this is supposed to be live and as long as not everyone has voted, Speaker Johnson can keep the vote open
