I guess I’m behind again. Does this mean the cloture vote has already happened?

Expect chaos to descend on Washington before then.

Don’t be surprised if they riot.

They are going all in.

“I was proud to file cloture on Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination yesterday evening. And I will be proud to vote to advance his nomination tomorrow.”
—Mitch McConnell

Sounds like cloture is over if I understand Mitch correctly?

I expect they will. When Kavanaugh is confirmed they will really go nuts.

I know that Mitch filed for cloture, but I never saw anything about the actual vote. Seems like it would have been news around here.

Do they need 60 votes for cloture? I thought that was the Reid nuclear option, which changed it to 50?

John, your questions are far too smart for me to answer.

Thank you for asking them. I hope others will chime in with informed responses.
