Murkowski a ‘no’ because Alaskan natives don’t like Kavanaugh.

Even though most Alaskans do.

So basically 15% of the population holds more sway with her than the other 85%.

Murkowski still believes that a juvenile accused of groping 36 years ago with no evidence whatsoever is a rapist

May karma come knocking

“That birch Murcowski needs to be politically destroyed . I will donate money to her challenger as should veryone”

I did the last time around and she lost her primary. Mitch and the boys ran her as an independent and she won that way. Mitch is to blame for her being in the Senate.

“Did they get the 51 votes needed?”

Yes. I was posting this super quick so didn’t explain it but yes they got the 51 votes necessary to cut off debate and have a vote this weekend. This also suggests but doesn’t prove he has the votes for confirmation.

And actually, only 50 votes were needed because Pence could break a tie.
