The Senate voted in the last hour to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to a seat on the Supreme Court.
The final vote was 50-48. Lisa Murkowski didn’t cast a no vote, because Senator Steve Daines of Montana, a yes vote, was at his daughter’s wedding. Since the tally was at 50 if neither voted, they made a “paired vote” agreement to make it a wash.
We will add to this post if events dictate as the day wears on. There were protests underway in and around the Capitol building throughout the vote.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
