Republicans have enough votes to confirm President Donald Trump’s next Supreme Court nominee, Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said late Monday.

“We’ve got the votes to confirm Justice Ginsburg’s replacement before the election,” Graham said during an appearance on Fox News’ “Hannity.”

“We’re going to move forward in the committee, we’re going to report the nomination out of the committee to the floor of the United States Senate so we can vote before the election. That’s the constitutional process,” he added.

Andy McCarthy says in that case Nov.30, but if McSally lost dems might start rioting in the capitol.

2. Confirming prior to the election will deflate a number of leftist voters who would vote on this issue alone, Ginsberg’s replacement (read: abortion).


This is a big one that I haven’t heard too many people mention. Getting a Judge on the SCOTUS prior to the election will absolutely deflate many would-be voters. I would think some may even sit out in protest that the Dems did not do everything in their power to stop it.

Good, if the nominee will vote to overturn Roe.

The GOP may also figure that a quick confirmation will solidify their support even among many NeverTrumpers

Never Trumpers would prefer that Biden choose Ginsburg's replacement.
