Senate insiders are reporting that they have the votes to confirm Judge Brett Kavanaugh.
According to The Daily Wire:
According to Senate insiders, Republicans have the votes to confirm Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, which is expected to take place early next week.
After the explosive hearing on Thursday, which featured a moving testimony by accuser Christine Blasey Ford and an impassioned defense by Kavanaugh, Senate Republicans scheduled the vote to move the Supreme Court nominee out of the Senate Judiciary Committee and set the procedural vote for the Senate. According to insiders, Republicans have the votes to confirm the embattled nominee.
“With the Senate Judiciary Committee holding a vote at 9:30 A.M. tomorrow, a Senate insider has told Townhall that Kavanaugh has the votes to make it out of committee and the votes to be confirmed on the floor for a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court,” Towhnall’s Matt Vespa reports. “Sens. Flake (R-AZ), Collins (R-ME), Murkowski (R-AK), and Manchin (D-WV) are expected to vote in favor of Kavanaugh. All the Republicans are voting yes. Also, in the rumor mill, several Democrats may break ranks and back Kavanaugh. That’s the ball game, folks.”
The Atlantic’s Elaina Plott reported that a source close to Sen. Manchin told her, “Short of claims that definitively prove Dr. Ford’s allegations or a realization that Kavanaugh will gut the healthcare law, Manchin will side with the overwhelming number of people in WV who want Kavanaugh confirmed.”
On Friday morning RINO Senator Jeff Flake offered his support for Kavanaugh as well. It is looking promising for President Trump to get his second justice on the Supreme Court.
