Given the proximity of the Presidential election, however, I dont believe the senate should vote on the nominee priority the election in fairness to the American people

She’s from MAINE people. She’s up for reelection. She’s doing this for her own survival as a Senator. This should come as a surprise to no one with even half a clue.
When was SHE elected POTUS?! And when did SHE get to decide what’s fair to the American people?
More of the same. As it sits today, the Supreme Court consists of two constitutional conservatives, (both in their 70s), two centrists, and four liberal activists.
already baked into the calculation
It’s not surprising with her.
idiot. chuck schumer would be cramming this down her throat if the shoe was on the other foot.
Thats not exactly a no. She saying the process should start but shouldnt finish. Not her call. Well have to wait and see.
Come on Mitch get tough with these idiots ,you can bet the Dems will get 100% against
Dumb piece of crap. I never read anything in the Consitution that says it’s void during a presidential election cycle.
Why would we think that she would care about the country more that herself she NEVER has!! I know it will be painful BUT it is best if she is gone!!!
Caving in to the Marxist Mob.
She is 12 points behind in one poll. Probably for one of the few times in my life, I will not vote for a Republican candidate.
Romney is a Mormon, and I think high ranking in his church. Do you think the Mormons in Utah are going to forgive him if he ruins the chances of a conservative Supreme Court? He will be primaried and out on his next reelection bid.
One step closer to losing the Senate. It was at risk to begin with.
There's a lot of whispered promises being made here both by McConnell/Trump *and* Rat Party Headquarters.
The fact that Mitt has denied being a "no" vote sounds pretty hopeful.
She can choose to vote yea, nay, or refuse to vote.
+++++
Are you sure she can refuse to vote? Like vote Present.
If so then a good compromise would to say OK to her and a few others to do the same.
Cant we win with a 47 to 47 tie and Pence breaking the tie?
In fairness to the American people.
The American people elected Donald Trump, and there hasnt been one fair thing said or done that would make anyone believe Collins cares about fairness, or she would protect the Supreme Court and get behind Trump.
