The Senate will vote Monday on confirming President Trump's nominee, Judge Amy Coney Barrett, to the Supreme Court.
"With regard to the Supreme Court justice ... we'll be voting to confirm justice-to-be Barrett next Monday," Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said during a weekly press conference, confirming the timing of a final vote on her nomination.
...
Top GOP senators and aides had previously indicated to The Hill that they were likely to set up the final vote for Monday, allowing vulnerable GOP senators to spend the final week before the election back on the campaign trail.
To set up a final vote on Monday, McConnell is expected to tee up Barrett's nomination on Friday, a day after the Judiciary Committee is expected to sign off on her nomination.
The Senate will then hold a procedural vote on Sunday. After that, senators could still debate her nomination for an additional 30 hours.

I thought it was Friday?
Watch them keep putting it off.
Nice dig,Turtle.
It was always going to be Oct 26
Sounds good. Thursday at cmte, the Friday to vote full senate on Monday.
Notice how this has disappeared from the news? It’s because people love this candidate.
There is no indication of that at all.
Turtle has supported and pushed through a very large number of Judges that Trump nominated.
He was very loyal throughout the impeachment nonsense.
Positive thinking. I’m giving it a try after decades of negative thinking hasn’t worked out :)
have a good one!
Right on schedule like they said, Judiciary on 22nd, floor vote on 26th.
Perfect
DJT made the right choice.
Giving the Dems more time to make something up.
FU TURTLE
Hope Amy can be approved and take her SCOTUS seat in time to perhaps “overrule” that decision yesterday to allow PA to keep counting for three days past Election Day.
I saw on a FR thread Monday that PDJT’s legal team might be able to file a writ after Chief Justice Roberts once again sabotaged us and sided with the three liberals.
Remember with Kavanaugh, it was at this point in the process, after the committee hearings were supposedly all done, that the Democrats leaked the Christine Ford story, and all hell broke loose?
I will be relieved once she is confirmed and sworn in. If the Democrats want to pull any shenanigans, this is the time, before the final Senate vote, that they would do it.
How about today.
Thursday is the committee vote. since they’ve announced senate vote on monday they should do it friday when the senate opens. that way the democrats can’t skip and say there’s no quorum for a vote
In the quest for justice and equality, I’m sure all the females in the senate will vote yea. Right?
So many date going around for this and that. I guess I got confused.
Roberts‘ treachery was on full display in the Pennsylvania election case yesterday. This will certainly screw up the left’s plan to steal the presidency with Supreme Court sanctioned election fraud. Thank Lucifer for calling Ginsberg home just in time.
Sadly a week late, but good to see.
However, even if Roberts weren’t enough to block the PA vote-counting decision, there unfortunately could well have been a GOP-named Justice (other than Thomas or Alito) to roll over as required.
Why not right now? WTF else important do they have more pressing?
