Murkowski and Collins already said that they won't vote before the election (for Collins it would be political suicide, since she is running for reelection in a mostly blue state) and I don't think anyone believes that Mitt would vote to confirm. Without the three of them they don't have the votes.
And I think that Graham also said a while back that he would not vote in an election year.
All the more reason to replace her NOW!!! I want a nominee by Monday! I want them confirmed by Tuesday and seated before Friday!
dream on Seanie boy...dream on...you guys caused your own problems...keep screaming, means nothing
I don't follow.
If this is true, isn't it convenient that she passed away right now? When it is not enough time to confirm someone before the election...
There’s plenty of time and they better make some time!

In a 4-4 split, isn’t the VP the tie breaker?
