The Justice will declare whether the motion passes or not.

In the case of a tie THAT IS A VOTE!

If it is 50-50, it will fail, and that is what he will declare. Roberts has spoken before about the independence of the different branches of govt. That is why Schiff and Nadler spent all night begging the Chief Justice to vote unilaterally on witnesses.

You must not watch Fox News much. As of midnight, they have been on for two hours saying “In a 50-50 tie, the vote goes down.”

Along with lines about no vote by Chief Justice. And “50 votes is all the Republicans need.”

Unless no one on Fox knows what to hey are talking about, you will find out Friday that you were mistaken.
