http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/26/politics/paul-ryan-leadership-trump/index.html (please move if in wrong place), Paul Nehlen is now trying to challenge Paul Ryan for the speakership even though he will not be in the House himself.

The best part: it's technically allowed.

LOL! Can you run without being a member of congress? If so, they could also elect Trump Wink
Yes the speaker of the house does not technically have to be a member of the house although every speaker so far has

Yes, all the Constitution says is: "The House of Representatives shall choose their speaker and other officers".

In recent speakership elections it happened a non-member received votes.
