oK, just put on CSPAN see the vote Y-53, N-23. They're showing the breakdown...why are there some with no vote? Does that mean they're not there. Please help me.
I think those are projected votes of the way people have said they will vote.
That or holding out till the last possible moment. It's been like that since last night.
Did Hildabeast vote yet, or is she waiting to make a dramatic entrance to vote NO?
Howlin is right, this just shows how they have said they will vote. 53 - Yes; 23 - No; The remainder have not yet declared. Hitlery is a no.
Based on a blog that was linked on the Alito Hearings thread last night, I pulled out the ones that haven't committed and their status in '06. I was curious as to how many were up for re-election this year, so did a little research and added it (and a few other personal comments). Perhaps with no surprise, many are up for re-election and a few are retiring (and/or have a few other issues (that I'm aware of). (sorry the formatting isn't better). Here's what I think are the remaining open votes as of now. (Current Y-53, N-24 - based on statements, not votes)
