Three Long Island congressmen cast their votes for House speaker for another Long Island who is not even currently in Congress.

Reps. Anthony D'Esposito, Nick LaLota and Andrew Garbarino all voted for former GOP gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin.

The congressmen have not said how they will vote in the next round.
