They have 19 warm bodies.

They need 20 warm bodies for quorum. Quorum doesn’t care about political affiliation.

You thought wrong. There are 19 Republicans, and transmogrifying one into a Rat fails to solve the quorum problem.

Wrong.
They need 20 warm bodies elected to serve in that body.
Party does not matter.

However, on “non financial” stuff, they do not need 20.
