How many Democratic Party Senators will vote to confirm Matthew Whitaker?



Marco Rubio was confirmed by EVERY SINGLE Democratic Senator along with the independents.

That was a massive betrayal.

How many will betray us again?

I thought perhaps it was your own personal analysis.

Thanks for the reply!

listed alphabetically by State

AZ - Mark Kelly (tough State and he is hardly the 2nd coming of Manchin)
CO - John Hickenlooper (he has been less centrist than I thought he would be when he was first elected)
DE - Chris Coons (his centrism is mostly all economic, which is hardly a surprise as he represents Delaware)
ME - Angus King (indy but a Dem Caucus member)
MI - Elissa Slotkin (was a Problem Solver in the US House) (she is the most likely to become a new Manchin/Sinema type IMHO, joining Fetterman, she was very anti-Pelosi and openly anti progressive in the House)
NV - Jacky Rosen (was a Problem Solver in the US House)
NH - Jeanne Shaheen (retiring)
NH - Maggie Hassan
PA - John Fetterman (is now by far the worst Dem Senator IMHO, such a disappointment, and my issues with him are not limited to 'centrism')
VA - Mark Warner

Fetterman (for multiple reasons) and potentially Slotkin are the only 2 I really worry about overall, and hopefully Slotkin doesn't go all 'Sinema', who, btw, was another Problem Solver in the House.
